Note: Breaking changes in the API

• OpenShiftConfig#openshiftApiGroupsEnabled is deprecated and no longer used.
• OpenShiftConfig#disableApiGroupCheck is used only to determine if a client is adaptable to the OpenShiftClient and is generally only needed in mock scenarios. It will be set automatically on clients obtained from an openshift mock server.
• KubernetesClient.getVersion has been deprecated, please use one of the more specific methods introduced by #3448 - KubernetesClient.getKubernetesVersion, OpenShiftClient.getOpenShiftV3Version, and OpenShiftClient.getOpenShiftV3Version
