- The test "[sig-network] EndpointSlice should have Endpoints and EndpointSlices pointing to API Server [Conformance]" only requires that there is an EndpointSlice that references the "kubernetes.default" service, it no longer requires that its named "kubernetes".

- Kubelet: close a loophole where static pods could reference arbitrary ResourceClaims. The pods created by the kubelet then don't run due to a sanity check, but such references shouldn't be allowed regardless.
