Build release tars using bazel
**What this PR does / why we need it**: builds equivalents of the various kubernetes release tarballs, solely using bazel.
For example, you can now do
```console
$ make bazel-release
$ hack/e2e.go -v -up -test -down
```
**Special notes for your reviewer**: this is currently dependent on 3b29803eb5, which I have yet to turn into a pull request, since I'm still trying to figure out if this is the best approach.
Basically, the issue comes up with the way we generate the various server docker image tarfiles and load them on nodes:
* we `md5sum` the binary being encapsulated (e.g. kube-proxy) and save that to `$binary.docker_tag` in the server tarball
* we then build the docker image and tag using that md5sum (e.g. `gcr.io/google_containers/kube-proxy:$MD5SUM`)
* we `docker save` this image, which embeds the full tag in the `$binary.tar` file.
* on cluster startup, we `docker load` these tarballs, which are loaded with the tag that we'd created at build time. the nodes then use the `$binary.docker_tag` file to find the right image.
With the current bazel `docker_build` rule, the tag isn't saved in the docker image tar, so the node is unable to find the image after `docker load`ing it.
My changes to the rule save the tag in the docker image tar, though I don't know if there are subtle issues with it. (Maybe we want to only tag when `--stamp` is given?)
Also, the docker images produced by bazel have the timestamp set to the unix epoch, which is not great for debugging. Might be another thing to change with a `--stamp`.
Long story short, we probably need to follow up with bazel folks on the best way to solve this problem.

Kubernetes
Introduction
Kubernetes is an open source system for managing containerized applications across multiple hosts, providing basic mechanisms for deployment, maintenance, and scaling of applications. Kubernetes is hosted by the Cloud Native Computing Foundation (CNCF)
Kubernetes builds upon a decade and a half of experience at Google running production workloads at scale using a system called Borg, combined with best-of-breed ideas and practices from the community.

- Take a free course on Scalable Microservices with Kubernetes.
- Interested in developing the core Kubernetes code base, developing tools using the Kubernetes API or helping in anyway possible ? Keep reading!
Code of Conduct
The Kubernetes community abides by the CNCF code of conduct. Here is an excerpt:
As contributors and maintainers of this project, and in the interest of fostering an open and welcoming community, we pledge to respect all people who contribute through reporting issues, posting feature requests, updating documentation, submitting pull requests or patches, and other activities.
Community
Do you want to help "shape the evolution of technologies that are container-packaged, dynamically-scheduled and microservices-oriented? ". If you are a company, you should consider joining the CNCF. For details about who's involved in CNCF and how Kubernetes plays a role, read the announcement. For general information about our community see the website community page.
Join us on social media (Twitter, Google+) and read our blog
Ask questions and help answer them on Slack or Stack Overflow
Attend our key events (kubecon, cloudnativecon, weekly community meeting)
Join a Special Interest Group (SIG)
Contribute
If you're interested in being a contributor and want to get involved in developing Kubernetes, get started with this reading:
- The community expectations
- The contributor guidelines
- The Kubernetes Developer Guide
You will then most certainly gain a lot from joining a SIG, attending the regular hangouts as well as the community meeting.
If you have an idea for a new feature, see the Kubernetes Features repository for a list of features that are coming in new releases as well as details on how to propose one.
Building Kubernetes for the impatient
If you want to build Kubernetes right away there are two options:
- You have a working Go environment.
$ go get -d k8s.io/kubernetes
$ cd $GOPATH/src/k8s.io/kubernetes
$ make
- You have a working Docker environment.
$ git clone https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes
$ cd kubernetes
$ make quick-release
If you are less impatient, head over to the developer's documentation.
Support
While there are many different channels that you can use to get hold of us (Slack, Stack Overflow, Issues, Forums/Mailing lists), you can help make sure that we are efficient in getting you the help that you need.
If you need support, start with the troubleshooting guide and work your way through the process that we've outlined.
That said, if you have questions, reach out to us one way or another. We don't bite!
