Changes, deprecations and removals

• From Strimzi 0.40.0 on, we support only Kubernetes 1.23 and newer.
  Kubernetes 1.21 and 1.22 are not supported anymore.
• #​9508 fixes the Strimzi CRDs and their definitions of labels and annotations.
  This change brings our CRDs in-sync with the Kubernetes APIs.
  After this fix, the label and annotation definitions in our CRDs (for example in the template sections) cannot contain integer values anymore and have to always use string values.
  If your custom resources use an integer value, for example:
  template:
  apiService:
  metadata:
  annotations:
  discovery.myapigateway.io/port: 8080
  You might get an error similar to this when applying the resource:
  * spec.template.apiService.metadata.annotations.discovery.myapigateway.io/port: Invalid value: "integer": spec.template.apiService.metadata.annotations.discovery.myapigateway.io/port in body must be of type string: "integer"
  To fix the issue, just use a string value instead of an integer:
  template:
  apiService:
  metadata:
  annotations:
  discovery.myapigateway.io/port: "8080"
• Support for the JmxTrans component is now completely removed.
  If you are upgrading from Strimzi 0.34 or earlier and have JmxTrans enabled in .spec.jmxTrans of the Kafka custom resource, you should disable it before the upgrade or delete it manually after the upgrade is complete.
• The api module was refactored and classes were moved to new packages.
• Strimzi Drain Cleaner 1.1.0 (included in the Strimzi 0.40.0 installation files) changes the way it handles Kubernetes eviction requests.
  It denies them instead of allowing them.
  This new behavior does not require the PodDisruptionBudget to be set to maxUnavailable: 0.
  We expect this to improve the compatibility with various tools used for scaling Kubernetes clusters such as Karpenter.
  If you observe any problems with your toolchain or just want to stick with the previous behavior, you can use the STRIMZI_DENY_EVICTION environment variable and set it to false to switch back to the old (legacy) mode.
