k3s - v1.26.1+k3s1

This release updates Kubernetes to v1.26.1, and fixes a number of issues.

For more details on what's new, see the Kubernetes release notes.

Changes since v1.26.0+k3s2:

• Add jitter to scheduled snapshots and retry harder on conflicts (#6715)
• Scheduled etcd snapshots are now offset by a short random delay of up to several seconds. This should prevent multi-server clusters from executing pathological behavior when attempting to simultaneously update the snapshot list ConfigMap. The snapshot controller will also be more persistent in attempting to update the snapshot list.
• Adjust e2e test run script and fixes (#6718)
• RIP Codespell (#6701)
• Bump alpine from 3.16 to 3.17 in /package (#6688)
• Bump alpine from 3.16 to 3.17 in /conformance (#6687)
• Bump containerd to v1.6.15-k3s1 (#6722)
• The embedded containerd version has been bumped to v1.6.15-k3s1
• Containerd restart testlet (#6696)
• Bump ubuntu from 20.04 to 22.04 in /tests/e2e/scripts (#6686)
• Add explicit read permissions to workflows (#6700)
• Pass through default tls-cipher-suites (#6725)
• The K3s default cipher suites are now explicitly passed in to kube-apiserver, ensuring that all listeners use these values.
• Bump golang:alpine image version (#6683)
• Bugfix: do not break cert-manager when pprof is enabled (#6635)
• Fix CI tests on Alpine 3.17 (#6744)
• Update Stable to 1.25.5+k3s2 (#6753)
• Bump action/download-artifact to v3 (#6746)
• Generate report and upload test results (#6737)
• Slow dependency CI to weekly (#6764)
• Fix Drone plugins/docker tag for 32 bit arm (#6769)
