DNS Load Balancer runs as a sidecar for ingress and apiserver pods.
Its purpose is to manage DNS entries, during node drains and failures.
It currently only supports cloudflare.
While running, it checks the local port and adds or removes (on failure) its own IP to the subdomain.
Process termination removes the local IP entries from the subdomain and waits 120 seconds for DNS TTL.
In case the node shut down without warning, a cronjob checks all DNS endpoints and removes unhealthy IPs.
