Variables that were part of kube-env that were only used for kubelet flags are no longer being set, and are being replaced by the more portable mechanism of the kubelet configuration file. The individual variables in the kube-env metadata entry were never meant to be a stable interface and this release note only applies if you are depending on them.

- Renames the timeout field for the DelegatingAuthenticationOptions to TokenRequestTimeout and set the timeout only for the token review client. Previously the timeout was also applied to watches making them reconnecting every 10 seconds.

* kubeadm: Add support for using an external CA whose key is never stored in the cluster ([#50832](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/50832), [@nckturner](https://github.com/nckturner))

This is especially useful for environments using kube-proxy in iptables mode with a high churn rate of services.
