Deprecating dockershim - Switch to a CRI implementation

[Davanum Srinivas]

Folks,

sig-node has been struggling to keep the in-tree dockershim implementation up-to-date and relevant. There are several CRI implementations and since CRI is the way forward, it would make sense to drop dockershim in a subsequent release. We already have a way to build kubelet without docker (see "dockerless" tag) and we have tried it out with kind etc as well.

Here's a PR to start the clock ticking to an eventual removal

https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/94624

Please drop by the next sig-node meeting as well if you have strong opinions :)

Thanks,

Dims

+1 recently https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/90839 took a fair amount of reviewer bandwidth, as an example of why removing dockershim will benefit alot of sigs outside just signode :)
