- `kubeadm`: added a new "kubeadm config validate" command that can be used to
  validate any input config file. Use the `--config` flag to pass a config file
  to it. See the command `--help` screen for more information. As a result of adding
  this new command, enhance the validation capabilities of the existing "kubeadm

- E2e.test: removed the  `--viper-config` flag. If you were previously using this to pass flags to `e2e.test` via a file, you will need to pass them directly on the command line, e.g. `e2e.test --e2e-output-dir`.

## Known Issues for v1.5.1

- `hack/local-up-cluster.sh` script times out waiting for apiserver to answer, see [#38847](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/issues/38847).
  To workaround this, modify the script to pass `--anonymous-auth=true` to `sudo -E "${GO_OUT}/hyperkube" apiserver ...` when starting `kube-apiserver`.

`kube-system/kubelet-config` naming scheme for the kubelet ConfigMap and RBAC rules, instead of the legacy `kubelet-config-x.yy` naming. 2) during upgrade, kubeadm will only write the new scheme ConfigMap and RBAC objects. To disable the feature you can pass `UnversionedKubeletConfigMap: false` in the kubeadm config for new clusters. For upgrade on existing clusters you can also override the behavior by patching the ClusterConfiguration object in `kube-system/kubeadm-config`. More details in the associated...
