* Fixed incomplete kubectl bash completion. ([#31333](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/31333), [@xingzhou](https://github.com/xingzhou))
* Added liveness probe to Heapster service. ([#31878](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/31878), [@mksalawa](https://github.com/mksalawa))

  * Liveness and readiness probes now support more configuration parameters:
periodSeconds, successThreshold, failureThreshold
  * The new ReplicaSet API (Beta) in the Extensions API group is similar to

  
  In addtion, please be careful that:
  - controller-manager MUST start with `--authorization-kubeconfig` and `--authentication-kubeconfig` correctly set to get authentication/authorization working.
  - liveness/readiness probes to controller-manager MUST use HTTPS now, and the default port has been changed to 10257.

With Kubernetes 1.24, the [gRPC probes functionality](https://github.com/kubernetes/enhancements/issues/2727)
has entered beta and is available by default. You can now [configure startup, liveness, and readiness probes](https://kubernetes.io/docs/tasks/configure-pod-container/configure-liveness-readiness-startup-probes/#configure-probes) for your gRPC app
natively within Kubernetes, without exposing an HTTP endpoint or
using an extra executable.

  honor the specified `scheme` and `headers` fields. This enables setting custom
  headers and changing the scheme to `HTTPS`, consistent with container
  startup/readiness/liveness probe capabilities. Lifecycle handlers configured
  with `scheme: HTTPS` that encounter errors indicating the endpoint is actually
  using HTTP fall back to making the request over HTTP for compatibility with
