<p>There are <i>boolean constants</i>,

<i>floating-point constants</i>, <i>complex constants</i>,
and <i>string constants</i>. Rune, integer, floating-point,
and complex constants are
collectively called <i>numeric constants</i>.

A constant value is represented by a

- [`KT-56023`](https://youtrack.jetbrains.com/issue/KT-56023) Constant operations (e.g. division) are not constant in K2 (JS, Native)
- [`KT-57354`](https://youtrack.jetbrains.com/issue/KT-57354) In suspend function default arguments are sometimes not deleted in IR

- Made Job controller batching of syncJob invocations enabled unconditionally (it was conditional on JobReadyPods feature before).

- The `ServiceAccountIssuerDiscovery` feature gate is removed. It reached GA in Kubernetes 1.21. ([#103685](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/103685), [@mengjiao-liu](https://github.com/mengjiao-liu))
- The `constants/variables` from k8s.io for STABLE metrics is now supported. ([#103654](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/103654), [@coffeepac](https://github.com/coffeepac))

    String SUGGEST_UPDATE_CONTENTS_LIMIT_NUM_PERCENTAGE = "suggest.update.contents.limit.num.percentage";

    /** The key of the configuration. e.g. 10000 */
    String SUGGEST_UPDATE_CONTENTS_LIMIT_NUM = "suggest.update.contents.limit.num";

    /** The key of the configuration. e.g. 50000 */
    String SUGGEST_UPDATE_CONTENTS_LIMIT_DOC_SIZE = "suggest.update.contents.limit.doc.size";

  // If the provisioner or an external controller can support the specified data source,
  // it will create a new volume based on the contents of the specified data source.
  // When the AnyVolumeDataSource feature gate is enabled, dataSource contents will be copied to dataSourceRef,
  // and dataSourceRef contents will be copied to dataSource when dataSourceRef.namespace is not specified.

* In case kubeadm can't access the current Kubernetes version remotely and fails to parse the git-based version it falls back to a static predefined value of k8s.io/kubernetes/cmd/kubeadm/app/constants.CurrentKubernetesVersion. ([#72454](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/72454), [@rojkov](https://github.com/rojkov))

    * This fixes an error in Uvicorn that otherwise would be thrown: `RuntimeError: Response content longer than Content-Length`.
    * This removes `fastapi.openapi.constants.STATUS_CODES_WITH_NO_BODY`, it is replaced by a function in utils.

### Translations

- Added `optionalOldSelf` to `x-kubernetes-validations` to support ratcheting CRD schema constraints. ([#121034](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/121034), [@alexzielenski](https://github.com/alexzielenski))

### Other (Cleanup or Flake)

- Client-go header logging (at verbosity levels >= 9) now masks `Authorization` header contents ([#95316](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/95316), [@sfowl](https://github.com/sfowl)) [SIG API Machinery]
