- Achieved 2X performance improvement on both required and preferred PodAffinity. ([#76243](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/76243), [@Huang-Wei](https://github.com/Huang-Wei))

- Setting loadBalancerClass in load balancer type of service is available with this PR. 
  Users who want to use a custom load balancer can specify loadBalancerClass to achieve it. ([#98277](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/98277), [@XudongLiuHarold](https://github.com/XudongLiuHarold)) [SIG API Machinery, Apps, Cloud Provider and Network]

        TfLite's `BuiltinOpResolver::GetDelegates` is now always empty. Instead,
        recommend using new method `tflite::OpResolver::GetDelegateCreators` in
        order to achieve lazy initialization on TfLite delegate instances.

*   TF Core:

    *   `tf.Graph.get_name_scope()` now always returns a string, as documented.

#### Forbid Extra Query (Cookie, Header) Parameters

Use Pydantic models to restrict extra values for `Query` parameters (also applies to `Header` and `Cookie` parameters).

To achieve it, use Pydantic's `model_config = {"extra": "forbid"}`:

```python
from typing import Annotated, Literal

from fastapi import FastAPI, Query
from pydantic import BaseModel, Field

app = FastAPI()
