- Fixed a bug in client-go where new clients with customized `Dial`, `Proxy`, `GetCert` config may get stale HTTP transports. ([#95427](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/95427), [@roycaihw](https://github.com/roycaihw)) [SIG API Machinery]

- Client-go now exposes two new metrics to monitor the client-go logic that

  - `rest_client_transport_cache_entries` is a gauge metric
  with the number of existing entries in the internal cache
  
  - `rest_client_transport_create_calls_total` is a counter

### Feature

- Parallelize calls to conversion webhooks when watching from etcd to prevent watchcache from lagging and helps clusters with slow conversion webhooks or transformers.
