Fix mergekey of initializers; Repair invalid update of initializers
Fix https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/issues/51131
The PR did two things to make parallel patching `metadata.initializers.pending` possible:
* Add mergekey to initializers.pending
* Let the initializer admission plugin set the `metadata.intializers` to nil if an update makes the `pending` and the `result` both nil, instead of returning a validation error. Otherwise if multiple initializer controllers sending the patch removing themselves from `pending` at the same time, one of them will get a validation error.
```release-note
The patch to remove the last initializer from metadata.initializer.pending will result in metadata.initializer to be set to nil (assuming metadata.initializer.result is also nil), instead of resulting in an validation error.

Remove null -> [] slice hack
Closes#44593
When 1.6 added protobuf storage, the storage layer lost the ability to persist slice fields with empty but non-null values.
As a workaround, we tried to convert empty slice fields to `[]`, rather than `null`. Compressing `null` -> `[]` was just as much of an API breakage as `[]` -> `null`, but was hoped to cause fewer problems in clients that don't do null checks.
Because of conversion optimizations around converting lists of objects, the `null` -> `[]` hack was discovered to only apply to individual get requests, not to a list of objects. 1.6 and 1.7 was released with this behavior, and the world didn't explode. 1.7 documented the breaking API change that `null` and `[]` should be considered equivalent, unless otherwise noted on a particular field.
This PR:
* Reverts the earlier attempt (https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/43422) at ensuring non-null json slice output in conversion
* Makes results of `get` consistent with the results of `list` (which helps naive clients that do deepequal comparisons of objects obtained via list/watch and get), and allows empty slice fields to be returned as `null`
```release-note
Protobuf serialization does not distinguish between `[]` and `null`.
API fields previously capable of storing and returning either `[]` and `null` via JSON API requests (for example, the Endpoints `subsets` field) can now store only `null` when created using the protobuf content-type or stored in etcd using protobuf serialization (the default in 1.6+). JSON API clients should tolerate `null` values for such fields, and treat `null` and `[]` as equivalent in meaning unless specifically documented otherwise for a particular field.

Paramaterize `stickyMaxAgeMinutes` for service in API
**What this PR does / why we need it**:
Currently I find `stickyMaxAgeMinutes` for a session affinity type service is hard code to 180min. There is a TODO comment, see
https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/blob/master/pkg/proxy/iptables/proxier.go#L205
I think the seesion sticky max time varies from service to service and users may not aware of it since it's hard coded in all proxier.go - iptables, userspace and winuserspace.
Once we parameterize it in API, users can set/get the values for their different services.
Perhaps, we can introduce a new field `api.ClientIPAffinityConfig` in `api.ServiceSpec`.
There is an initial discussion about it in sig-network group. See,
https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/kubernetes-sig-network/i-LkeHrjs80

default field selectors
We have a lot of code around field selectors that doesn't add much value. Every gettable resources probably wants name and namespace by default and since they all use metav1 (today), we can assign that as a default. If we think we'll always have metav1 style name and namespace, then this makes a reasonable default and you can always set something different.
This removes cruft and avoids the risk of accidentally forgetting a field selector.

After hpa controller determines the replica nums needed per cluster, it also

clusters by telling the corresponding controllers, which clusters they should
put the objects into (passed as list of selected clusters in annotations).

Remove incorrect patch-merge directives.
**What this PR does / why we need it**:
Directives were misplaced for the following types:
- MatchExpressions
- Taints
- Tolerations
Per the discussion in #46547, we cannot fix these because it would cause backwards-compatibility problems. Instead, remove the incorrect ones so they don't mislead users. This has no impact on behavior.
