[dependabot]

Bumps google.golang.org/grpc from 1.72.1 to 1.78.0.

Release notes

Sourced from google.golang.org/grpc's releases.

Release 1.78.0

Behavior Changes

• client: Align URL validation with Go 1.26+ to now reject target URLs with unbracketed colons in the hostname. (#8716)
  • Special Thanks: @​neild
• transport/client : Return status code Unknown on malformed grpc-status. (#8735)
• • xds/resolver:
• Drop previous route resources and report an error when no matching virtual host is found.
• Only log LDS/RDS configuration errors following a successful update and retain the last valid resource to prevent transient failures. (#8711)

New Features

• stats/otel: Add backend service label to weighted round robin metrics as part of A89. (#8737)
• stats/otel: Add subchannel metrics (without the disconnection reason) to eventually replace the pickfirst metrics. (#8738)
• client: Wait for all pending goroutines to complete when closing a graceful switch balancer. (#8746)
  • Special Thanks: @​twz123
• client: Add experimental.AcceptCompressors so callers can restrict the grpc-accept-encoding header advertised for a call. (#8718)
  • Special Thanks: @​iblancasa

Bug Fixes

• xds: Fix a bug in StringMatcher where regexes would match incorrectly when ignore_case is set to true. (#8723)
• client:
  • Change connectivity state to CONNECTING when creating the name resolver (as part of exiting IDLE).
  • Change connectivity state to TRANSIENT_FAILURE if name resolver creation fails (as part of exiting IDLE).
  • Change connectivity state to IDLE after idle timeout expires even when current state is TRANSIENT_FAILURE.
  • Fix a bug that resulted in OnFinish call option not being invoked for RPCs where stream creation failed. (#8710)
• xdsclient: Fix a race in the xdsClient that could lead to resource-not-found errors. (#8627)

Performance Improvements

• mem: Round up to nearest 4KiB for pool allocations larger than 1MiB. (#8705)
  • Special Thanks: @​cjc25

Release 1.77.0

API Changes

• mem: Replace the Reader interface with a struct for better performance and maintainability. (#8669)

Behavior Changes

• balancer/pickfirst: Remove support for the old pick_first LB policy via the environment variable GRPC_EXPERIMENTAL_ENABLE_NEW_PICK_FIRST=false. The new pick_first has been the default since v1.71.0. (#8672)

Bug Fixes

• xdsclient: Fix a race condition in the ADS stream implementation that could result in resource-not-found errors, causing the gRPC client channel to move to TransientFailure. (#8605)
• client: Ignore HTTP status header for gRPC streams. (#8548)
• client: Set a read deadline when closing a transport to prevent it from blocking indefinitely on a broken connection. (#8534)

Hi @dependabot[bot]. Thanks for your PR.

I'm waiting for a kubernetes-sigs member to verify that this patch is reasonable to test. If it is, they should reply with /ok-to-test on its own line. Until that is done, I will not automatically test new commits in this PR, but the usual testing commands by org members will still work. Regular contributors should join the org to skip this step.

Once the patch is verified, the new status will be reflected by the ok-to-test label.

I understand the commands that are listed here.
