- Readjust `kubelet_containers_per_pod_count` buckets to only show metrics greater than 1. ([#98169](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/98169), [@wawa0210](https://github.com/wawa0210))

### Bug or Regression

- Fixed a regression since 1.27.0 in scheduler framework when running score plugins. 
  The `skippedScorePlugins` number might be greater than `enabledScorePlugins`, 
  so when initializing a slice the cap(len(skippedScorePlugins) - len(enabledScorePlugins)) is negative,

* Sharing a PID namespace between containers in a pod is disabled by default in version 1.8. To enable for a node, use the `--docker-disable-shared-pid=false` kubelet flag. Be aware that PID namespace sharing requires Docker version greater than or equal to 1.13.1.

* Fix issues related to the eviction manager.

* Fix inconsistent Prometheus cAdvisor metrics.

* Fix issues related to the local storage allocatable feature.

- Update kube-apiserver's priority & fairness work estimator such that 'max seats' is MIN(0.15 x nominalCL, nominalCL / handSize)
  
  This fixes a bug where clients with requests using hand size x max seats greater than the nominal concurrency limit can starve other requests in the same priority level.

- The `kubectl debug` is able to create ephemeral containers in pre-1.22 clusters with the `EphemeralContainers` feature enabled. Note that versions of kubectl prior to 1.22 are unable to create ephemeral containers in clusters version 1.22 and greater due to an API change.

### Other (Cleanup or Flake)

- Service session affinity timeout tests are no longer required for Kubernetes network plugin conformance due to variations in existing implementations. New conformance tests will be developed to better express conformance in future releases.
