kubeadm: Fix subtle versioning ordering issue with v1.8.0-alpha.0

**What this PR does / why we need it**:

`--kubernetes-version latest` is broken since it evals to `v1.8.0-alpha.0` which actually is `v1.7.0-beta.0`, so kubeadm enables features that don't exist

**Which issue this PR fixes** *(optional, in `fixes #<issue number>(, fixes #<issue_number>, ...)` format, will close that issue when PR gets merged)*: fixes #

**Special notes for your reviewer**:
