* `v1beta1` RoleBinding/ClusterRoleBinding subjects changed `apiVersion` to `apiGroup` to fully-qualify a subject. ServiceAccount subjects default to an apiGroup of `""`, User and Group subjects default to an apiGroup of `"rbac.authorization.k8s.io"`.

  //     "token": <token>,
  //     "expirationTimestamp": <expiration timestamp in RFC3339>,

* `kubectl create rolebinding` and `kubectl create clusterrolebinding` invocations must be updated to  specify multiple subjects as repeated  `--user`, `--group`, or `--serviceaccount` arguments instead of comma-separated arguments to a single `--user`, `--group`, or `--serviceaccount`.  E.g. `--user=x,y` must become `--user x --user y`  ([#43903](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/43903), [@xilabao](https://github.com/xilabao))

- Allowed creating ServiceAccount tokens bound to Node objects.
  This allows users to bind a service account token's validity to a named Node object, similar to Pod bound tokens.
