Add a new TS_EXPERIMENTAL_ENABLE_FORWARDING_OPTIMIZATIONS env var
that can be set for tailscale/tailscale container running as
a subnet router or exit node to enable UDP GRO forwarding
for improved performance.
See https://tailscale.com/kb/1320/performance-best-practices#linux-optimizations-for-subnet-routers-and-exit-nodes
This is currently considered an experimental approach;
the configuration support is partially to allow further experimentation
with containerized environments to evaluate the performance
improvements.

Turn off stateful filtering for egress proxies to allow cluster
traffic to be forwarded to tailnet.
Allow configuring stateful filter via tailscaled config file.
Deprecate EXPERIMENTAL_TS_CONFIGFILE_PATH env var and introduce a new
TS_EXPERIMENTAL_VERSIONED_CONFIG env var that can be used to provide
containerboot a directory that should contain one or more
tailscaled config files named cap-<tailscaled-cap-version>.hujson.
Containerboot will pick the one with the newest capability version
that is not newer than its current capability version.
Proxies with this change will not work with older Tailscale
Kubernetes operator versions - users must ensure that
the deployed operator is at the same version or newer (up to
4 version skew) than the proxies.

* Add a fake internal kube client, test functionality that has dependencies on kube client operations.
* Fix an issue where interactive login was not allowed in an edge case where state Secret does not exist
* Make the CheckSecretPermissions method report whether we have permissions to create/patch a Secret if it's determined that these operations will be needed

Modifies containerboot to wait on tailscaled process
only, not on any child process of containerboot.
Waiting on any subprocess was racing with Go's
exec.Cmd.Run, used to run iptables commands and
that starts its own subprocesses and waits on them.
Containerboot itself does not run anything else
except for tailscaled, so there shouldn't be a need
to wait on anything else.

* cmd/containerboot,util/linuxfw: support proxy backends specified by DNS name
Adds support for optionally configuring containerboot to proxy
traffic to backends configured by passing TS_EXPERIMENTAL_DEST_DNS_NAME env var
to containerboot.
Containerboot will periodically (every 10 minutes) attempt to resolve
the DNS name and ensure that all traffic sent to the node's
tailnet IP gets forwarded to the resolved backend IP addresses.
Currently:
- if the firewall mode is iptables, traffic will be load balanced
accross the backend IP addresses using round robin. There are
no health checks for whether the IPs are reachable.
- if the firewall mode is nftables traffic will only be forwarded
to the first IP address in the list. This is to be improved.
* cmd/k8s-operator: support ExternalName Services
Adds support for exposing endpoints, accessible from within
a cluster to the tailnet via DNS names using ExternalName Services.
This can be done by annotating the ExternalName Service with
tailscale.com/expose: "true" annotation.
The operator will deploy a proxy configured to route tailnet
traffic to the backend IPs that service.spec.externalName
resolves to. The backend IPs must be reachable from the operator's
namespace.

* cmd/containerboot,cmd/k8s-operator/deploy/manifests: optionally forward cluster traffic via ingress proxy.
If a tailscale Ingress has tailscale.com/experimental-forward-cluster-traffic-via-ingress annotation, configure the associated ingress proxy to have its tailscale serve proxy to listen on Pod's IP address. This ensures that cluster traffic too can be forwarded via this proxy to the ingress backend(s).
In containerboot, if EXPERIMENTAL_PROXY_CLUSTER_TRAFFIC_VIA_INGRESS is set to true
and the node is Kubernetes operator ingress proxy configured via Ingress,
make sure that traffic from within the cluster can be proxied to the ingress target.

A Tailnet node can be told to stop advertise subnets by passing
an empty string to --advertise-routes flag.
Respect an explicitly passed empty value to TS_ROUTES env var
so that users have a way to stop containerboot acting as a subnet
router without recreating it.
Distinguish between TS_ROUTES being unset and empty.

`tailscaled` and `tailscale` expect the socket to be at
`/var/run/tailscale/tailscaled.sock`, however containerboot
would set up the socket at `/tmp/tailscaled.sock`. This leads to a
poor UX when users try to use any `tailscale` command as they
have to prefix everything with `--socket /tmp/tailscaled.sock`.
To improve the UX, this adds a symlink to
`/var/run/tailscale/tailscaled.sock` to point to `/tmp/tailscaled.sock`.
This approach has two benefits, 1 users are able to continue to use
existing scripts without this being a breaking change. 2. users are
able to use the `tailscale` CLI without having to add the `--socket` flag.

This partially reverts commits a61a9ab087
and 7538f38671 and fully reverts
4823a7e591.
The goal of that commit was to reapply known config whenever the
container restarts. However, that already happens when TS_AUTH_ONCE was
false (the default back then). So we only had to selectively reapply the
config if TS_AUTH_ONCE is true, this does exactly that.
This is a little sad that we have to revert to `tailscale up`, but it
fixes the backwards incompatibility problem.

This migrates containerboot to reuse the NetfilterRunner used
by tailscaled instead of manipulating iptables rule itself.
This has the added advantage of now working with nftables and
we can potentially drop the `iptables` command from the container
image in the future.

1.50.0 switched containerboot from using `tailscale up`
to `tailscale login`. A side-effect is that a re-usable
authkey is now re-applied on every boot by `tailscale login`,
where `tailscale up` would ignore an authkey if already
authenticated.
Though this looks like it is changing the default, in reality
it is setting the default to match what 1.48 and all
prior releases actually implemented.

The test was sending SIGKILL to containerboot, which results in no
signal propagation down to the bash script that is running as a child
process, thus it leaks.
Minor changes to the test daemon script, so that it cleans up the socket
that it creates on exit, and spawns fewer processes.

In typical k8s setups, the MTU configured on the eth0 interfaces is typically 1500 which
results in packets being dropped when they make it to proxy pods as the tailscale0 interface
has a 1280 MTU.
As the primary use of this functionality is TCP, add iptables based MSS clamping to allow
connectivity.

This watches the provided path for a JSON encoded ipn.ServeConfig.
Everytime the file changes, or the nodes FQDN changes it reapplies
the ServeConfig.
At boot time, it nils out any previous ServeConfig just like tsnet does.
As the ServeConfig requires pre-existing knowledge of the nodes FQDN to do
SNI matching, it introduces a special `${TS_CERT_DOMAIN}` value in the JSON
file which is replaced with the known CertDomain before it is applied.
