This adds documentation of mount propagation feature kubernetes/enhancements#432

It's hard to describe mount propagation in a few paragraphs, it's quite confusing topic.

Mount propagation allows for sharing volumes mounted by a Container to
other Containers in the same Pod, or even to other Pods on the same node.

If the MountPropagation feature is disabled, volume mounts in pods are not propagated.
That is, Containers run with private mount propagation as described in the
Linux kernel documentation.

To enable this feature, specify MountPropagation=true in the
--feature-gates command line option. When enabled, the volumeMounts field
of a Container has a new mountPropagation subfield. Its values are:

This volume mount behaves the same as the HostToContainer mount. In addition, all volume mounts created by the Container will be propagated back to the host and to all Containers of all Pods that use the same volume.


Typical use case for this mode would be a Pod with a Flex volume driver or
a Pod that needs to mount something on the host using HostPath volume.

* Minor fixes to kubeadm 1.8 upgrade guide. (#5678)

- The kubelet upgrade instructions should be done on every host, not
  just worker nodes.
- We should just upgrade all packages, instead of calling out kubelet
  specifically. This will also upgrade kubectl, kubeadm, and
  kubernetes-cni, if installed.
- Draining nodes should also ignore daemonsets, and master errors can be
  ignored.
- Make sure that the new kubeadm download is chmoded correctly.
- Add a step to run `kubeadm version` to verify after downloading.
- Manually approve new kubelet CSRs if rotation is enabled (known issue).

* Updates for 1.8 kubectl reference docs

This is Fabrizio's work, which I'm committing along with my edits (in a commit on top of this).

* A few of my own edits to clarify and clean up some Markdown.
