build(deps): update kube requirement from 3.0.0 to 4.0.0 in /tests/utilities

[dependabot]

Updates the requirements on kube to permit the latest version.

Release notes

Sourced from kube's releases.

4.0.0

New Major

As per the release schedule to match up with the latest Kubernetes ハル release. Lots of fixes and improvements. Thanks to everyone who contributed!

Kubernetes v1_36 support via k8s-openapi 0.28

Please upgrade k8s-openapi along with kube to avoid conflicts.

CEL Validation

A new optional crate kube-cel is being re-exported through kube::core::cel via kube-rs/kube#1954

Kubernetes CRDs support CEL validation rules via x-kubernetes-validations, and were supported from 3.0 via KubeSchema, but these rules could only be evaluated server-side by the API server.

The new crate allows evaluating these rules locally using rules matching the upstream Kubernetes CEL libraries.

While low-level, a higher-level CEL validator integrates with CustomResource via #[kube(cel)] from kube-rs/kube#2011 and can be used as;

#[derive(CustomResource, Serialize, Deserialize, Clone, KubeSchema)]
#[kube(group = "example.com", version = "v1", kind = "Foo", namespaced)]
#[kube(cel, validation = "self.spec.replicas >= 0")] // cel trigger + validation rule
struct FooSpec { replicas: i32 }
let foo = Foo::new("test", FooSpec { replicas: -1 });
foo.validate_cel()?;                     // new impl; checks creation rules
new_foo.validate_cel_update(&old_foo)?;  // new impl; checks transition rules

See examples/crd_derive_cel.rs for more details.

Config

A lot of improvements to config handling;

• better error handling of malformed client certs in kube-rs/kube#1966
• add missing Kubeconfig fields in kube-rs/kube#1965
• Kubeconfig future key compatibility for new fields by adding catch-all other key via kube-rs/kube#1964
• deserialization changed from serde-yaml to serde-saphyr to get rid of the long-deprecated dependency. kube-rs/kube#1975

Retry and Timeouts

Better timeout and retry handling to better deal with flaky network conditions, and busy or initializing apiservers.

• default global read timeouts has been unset in favor of watcher level timeouts in kube-rs/kube#1945 (see kube-rs/kube#1798 for context)
• regular (non-watch) queries now respect the RetryPolicy - now enabled by default in kube-rs/kube#2007.
