  - Some kubeadm commands are now allowed to work in a completely offline mode.
- Certificate handling improvements:
  - Renew certs as part of upgrade.
  - New `kubeadm alpha phase certs renew` command for renewing certificates.
  - Certificates created with kubeadm now have improved uniqueness of Distinguished Name fields.
- HA improvements:

// search cost, performing well across all charset sizes.
//
// More complex heuristics (e.g., different thresholds per charset size)
// add branching overhead that eats away any theoretical improvements.
func shouldUseASCIISet(bufLen int) bool {
	return bufLen > 8
}

// containsRune is a simplified version of strings.ContainsRune
// to avoid importing the strings package.
