provides facilities for low-level programming including operations
that violate the type system. A package using <code>unsafe</code>
must be vetted manually for type safety and may not be portable.
The package provides the following interface:

- Previously, the pod name and namespace were eliminated in the event log message. This PR attempts to add the preemptor pod UID in the preemption event message logs for easier debugging and safer transparency.

* openapi now advertises correctly supported patch types for custom resources ([#81515](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/81515), [@liggitt](https://github.com/liggitt))
* kubectl cp now safely allows unpacking of symlinks that may point outside the destination directory ([#82384](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/82384), [@tallclair](https://github.com/tallclair))

  This feature will not be fully enabled until a future Kubernetes release (likely to be v1.29), but is added in v1.28 to enable
  safe rollback on downgrade. ([#118339](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/118339), [@jpbetz](https://github.com/jpbetz)) [SIG API Machinery, Auth, Cloud Provider and Testing]

- [`KT-58901`](https://youtrack.jetbrains.com/issue/KT-58901) K2. Value parameter default values are not checked for type mismatch

 - The `CSIMigrationVSphereComplete` feature flag is removed. `InTreePluginvSphereUnregister` will be the way moving forward. ...

- The --storage-versions flag of kube-apiserver is now deprecated. This flag should be omitted to ensure the default storage versions are used. Otherwise the cluster is not safe to upgrade to a version newer than 1.12. This flag will be removed in 1.13.
