[ upstream commit c1c9716 ]
[ Backporter's notes: Minor conflicts in values.yaml, go imports ]
If you scale a node pool down to zero nodes the Cluster Autoscaler won't
add new nodes because pending pods don't tolerate the cilium
agent-not-ready taint. If you're managing your own CA you can ignore
the cilium taint with a command line flag on the CA. However if you're
running on managed k8s (e.g. GKE), you may not have access to configure
the CA, and will need to use a custom taint prefix to be ignored by the
autoscaler when scaling up from zero nodes in a pool.
This commit adds config to add a prefix to the agent-not-ready taint so
it can be ignored by the cluster-autoscaler.
