Add several already-in-use kind labels to official list #2013

@jberkus

Description

@jberkus

The following kind/ labels are already in wide use in the project, have meaning, and as such should be available in the official master list of labels:

  • kind/cleanup: A refactoring, API reorganization, dependency version upgrade, or other "maintenance" code change.
  • kind/design: Specifications, API designs, plans for new components and APIs.
  • kind/api-change: changes to an existing API, important to track for conformance/compatibility. Used by SIG-arch, SIG-API
  • kind/new-api: brand new APIs, should be pretty rare, but important. Used by SIG-arch

This is in addition to kind/failing-test and kind/flake, as proposed in #1579.

The following two kind labels are also in use, but should be marked as "deprecated" as they are duplicative of other labels:

  • kind/enhancement: duplicates kind/feature
  • kind/technical-debt: duplicates kind/cleanup

If this is approved, I'll open a PR against test-infra with the changes.
