Rob Scott 8e7de45034 Reworking kube-proxy to only compute endpointChanges on apply. ...

Computing EndpointChanges is a relatively expensive operation for
kube-proxy when Endpoint Slices are used. This had been computed on
every EndpointSlice update which became quite inefficient at high levels
of scale when multiple EndpointSlice update events would be triggered
before a syncProxyRules call.

Profiling results showed that computing this on each update could
consume ~80% of total kube-proxy CPU utilization at high levels of
scale. This change reduced that to as little as 3% of total kube-proxy
utilization at high levels of scale.

It's worth noting that the difference is minimal when there is a 1:1
relationship between EndpointSlice updates and proxier syncs. This is
primarily beneficial when there are many EndpointSlice updates between
proxier sync loops.
