kubeadm support for bootstrapping clusters

[krisnova]

This is an issue to track the progress of supporting kubeadm (link) as a cluster bootstrap avenue for kops.

Success Criteria (Day 1)

1. Specify a command line flag to instruct kops to use kubeadm in place of nodeup
2. The feature will be experimental, and will not be advertised as production ready.
3. The new bootstrap avenue will need a name to be compatible with Cloud Formation Kops generate Cloud Formation code for AWS #1841

Future considerations

Output

1. We will need to come up with a clever name for bootstrap avenue. This will probably manifest itself as a command line flag, as well as an API parameter for kops. Respond below with suggestions please!
2. We will need to determine how to advertise this as an experimental feature of kops. Again, suggestions below please!

Is this plan still active?

@bhack the kubeadm team is looking at breaking up kubeadm into usable parts, but at this point we are not able to.
