### Bug or Regression

- Extend unsupported Table object detection from watchlist only to all List and Watch operations. This prevents the reflector from processing resources returned in Table format which it cannot properly handle ([#136937](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/136937), [@p0lyn0mial](https://github.com/p0lyn0mial)) [SIG API Machinery and Testing]

- Introduces new alpha functionality to the reflector, allowing user to enable API streaming.
  
  To activate this feature, users can set the `ENABLE_CLIENT_GO_WATCH_LIST_ALPHA` environmental variable.
  It is important to note that the server must support streaming for this feature to function properly.
  If streaming is not supported by the server, the reflector will revert to the previous method

- Services implemented a field selector for the ClusterIP and Type fields.

- The getters for the field name and typeDescription of the Reflector struct were renamed. ([#128035](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/128035), [@alexanderstephan](https://github.com/alexanderstephan)) [SIG API Machinery]

- Updated the comment about the feature-gate level for `PodFailurePolicy` from alpha to beta ([#118278](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/118278), [@mimowo](https://github.com/mimowo))
- `client-go`: Improved memory use of reflector caches when watching large numbers
  of objects which do not change frequently. ([#113362](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/113362), [@sxllwx](https://github.com/sxllwx))

- github.com/jonboulle/clockwork: [v0.4.0 → v0.5.0](https://github.com/jonboulle/clockwork/compare/v0.4.0...v0.5.0)

  - kube-proxy addon starts to use the label `node.kubernetes.io/kube-proxy-ds-ready` instead of `beta.kubernetes.io/kube-proxy-ds-ready` as its node selector.
  - metadata-proxy addon starts to use the label `cloud.google.com/metadata-proxy-ready` instead of `beta.kubernetes.io/metadata-proxy-ready` as its node selector.

#### Storage

- Informer/reflector callers can now catch and unwrap specific API errors by type. ([#110076](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/110076), [@karlkfi](https://github.com/karlkfi))

- Kubelet: fixed log spam from kubelet_getters.go `Path does not exist`. ([#112650](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/112650), [@rphillips](https://github.com/rphillips))
- Kubelet: fixed nil pointer in reflector start for standalone mode. ([#113501](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/113501), [@pacoxu](https://github.com/pacoxu))

 - For all kinds in the API group version, a spec.selector default value is no longer
 available, because it's incompatible with `kubectl
 apply` and strategic merge patch. You must explicitly set the spec.selector value
 in your manifest. An object with a spec.selector value that does not match the labels in
 its spec.template is invalid.

 - Selector mutation is disabled for all kinds in the
