Motivation for this change

While testing the revamped kubernetes module on our existing staging cluster with easyCerts disabled, I discovered some minor flaws in the module:

  1. The name of the etcd instance must be mkDefault'ed, because otherwise we risk overriding existing etcd cluster names, and that could potentially lead to cluster re-initiation on existing setups.

  2. It's currently not possible to use the kubernetes.lib.mkKubeConfig function to generate a kubeconfig with a custom ca. It will always use the toplevel ca cert. This is fine for current easyCerts setup, where we don't have multiple CA's, but in existing setups this might cause problems. We

  3. Turns out adding TLS-server certs to the controller manager was never done as part of the revamp and therefore we never discovered that the --tls-key-file flag on kube-controller-manager was named incorrectly. Similar flag names differ across various k8s components, but in this case it must be --tls-private-key-file. We should add TLS-serving certs to the controller-manager in another PR.

please backport to 19.03 :)

He, the changes apply and it does not even rebuild the tests :) but i think they are sane nevertheless.
Confirming the flag has to be --tls-private-key-file from https://kubernetes.io/docs/reference/command-line-tools-reference/kube-controller-manager/

Same as just conf.caFile or cfg.caFile

@infinisil Right, thanks. Fixed now.

- mkDefault etcd instance name
- make sure ca-cert in mkKubeConfig can be overriden
- fix controller-manager "tls-private-key-file" flag name

Thanks @infinisil . Do you mind cherry-picking this to 19.03 please? Or should I create a new PR?
