[neolit123]

instead of shelling out to crictl for CRI actions kubeadm can use the new https://git.k8s.io/cri-client library.

actions

1.31

• switch kubeadm to use the cri-client and only show a warning if crictl is missing https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/124685 https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/125212
• update kubeadm install docs to optionally install crictl in >= 1.31 https://kubernetes.io/docs/setup/production-environment/tools/kubeadm/install-kubeadm/#installing-kubeadm-kubelet-and-kubectl\
• https://github.com/kubernetes/website/pull/46576

1.32

• don't show a warning/error if the crictl binary is missing on kubeadm preflight https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/126596
• decouple the kubeadm package from the cri-tools package in k/release https://github.com/kubernetes/release/blob/38d66edef/cmd/krel/templates/latest/metadata.yaml#L15-L16 https://github.com/kubernetes/release/pull/3626
