Kueue might lose fields when admitting jobs

[alculquicondor]

What happened:

Whenever Kueue APIs are a version behind the latest version for a particular job type, there is the risk of dropping fields, because of the use of Update.

We should be using Patch instead.

What you expected to happen:

Kueue to be resilient to upgrades of Job CRDs.

Anything else we need to know?:

Environment:

• Kubernetes version (use kubectl version):
• Kueue version (use git describe --tags --dirty --always):
• Cloud provider or hardware configuration:
• OS (e.g: cat /etc/os-release):
• Kernel (e.g. uname -a):
• Install tools:
• Others:

As a hotfix for jobset integration, we need to bump the version of jobset in the release-0.6 branch.

We might have to do it manually #1984

[tenzen-y]

intersting. Which job types did you observe this issue?

[alculquicondor]

jobset

[tenzen-y]

I see. It's only JobSet. Thanks.

[alculquicondor]

It could be anything, but jobset is the only API that is changing quite fast.

That makes sense.

Let's keep it open to keep track of the outstanding work in #2553 which is not just cleanup but also semantic change from non-strict to strict patches.
