Description

*Title*: *Load balancer: Pluggable subsetting for load balancers*

*Description*:
We would like to have a pluggable component for feeding the subset of endpoints that feeds into the load balancer system such that it allows different subsetting schemes like deterministic subsetting. This will keep the load balancing scheme decoupled from the subsetting scheme. Without a pluggable subsetting scheme, looks like we currently only have a cluster priority based subset.
