New Features in Kubernetes Storage

" summary

Kubernetes adds volume selectors for label-based PV/PVC matching and a StorageClass abstraction that enables per-class parameters and multiple provisioners per cluster so dynamic provisioning moves from one built-in provisioner to many. Binding uses a tight two-write transaction with binder-added annotations to avoid races. Out-of-tree external provisioners can run as standalone processes (example: NFS provisioner) and create PVs on AWS and GCE; delete and snapshot/resizing remain unimplemented.
