Automatic merge from submit-queue

Pick a specific GCI version by default on GCE.

Prior to this change, a K8s branch (master as well as release) was
pinned to a GCI milestone.  It would pick up the latest GCI release on
that milestone at the time of cluster creation.  The rationale was the
K8s users would automatically get the bug fixes in newer versions of
GCI.  However in practice, it makes the runtime environment
non-deterministic, and lack of continuous e2e tests mean we would run
into breakages sooner or later.

With this change, each K8s release will pick a specific version
of GCI by default (similar to how the Debian-based container-vm gets used).
Users can override the default version through KUBE_GCE_MASTER_IMAGE and
KUBE_GCE_NODE_IMAGE environment variables.

We expect the default GCI version will be updated relatively frequently stay
updated with newer GCI releases.  We can also automate the process to
automatically bump the hard-coded GCI version in future.


@vishh @adityakali can you please review?
