* Update HPA docs with more algorithm details The HPA docs pointed to an out-of-date document for information on the algorithm details, which users were finding confusing. This sticks a section on the algorithm in the HPA docs instead, documenting both general behavior and corner cases. * Add glossary info, HPA docs on quantities People often ask about the quantity notation when working with the metrics APIs, so this adds a glossary entry on quantities (since they're used elsewhere in the system), and a short explantation in the HPA walkthough. * Information about HPA readiness and stabilization This adds information about the new changes to HPA readiness and stabilization from kubernetes/features#591, and other minor changes that landed in Kubernetes 1.12. * Update horizontal-pod-autoscale.md

| Quantity | quantity | 2018-08-07 | A whole-number representation of small or large numbers using SI suffixes. |
A whole-number representation of small or large numbers using SI suffixes.
Quantities are representations of small or large numbers using a compact, whole-number notation with SI suffixes. Fractional numbers are represented using milli-units, while large numbers can be represented using kilo-units, mega-units, giga-units, etc.
For instance, the number 1.5 is represented 1500m, while the number 1000
can be represented as 1k, and 1000000 as 1M. You can also specify
binary-notation suffixes; the number 2048 can be written as 2Ki.
The accepted decimal (power-of-10) units are m (milli), k (kilo,
intentionally lowercase), M (mega), G (giga), T (terra), P (peta),
E (exa).
The accepted binary (power-of-2) units are Ki (kibi), Mi (mebi), Gi (gibi),
Ti (tebi), Pi (pebi), Ei (exbi).
