Description

**1. Describe IN DETAIL the feature/behavior/change you would like to see.**
Kubernetes best practices state that kube-proxy is best deployed as a DaemonSet. As kops - as of now - places the kube-proxy manifest into /etc/kubernetes/manifests as a file, this is against this best practice.

**2. Feel free to provide a design supporting your feature request.**
We could deploy kube-proxy using the addon mechanisms

Research direction

Start by tracing how kOps currently places the kube-proxy manifest in /etc/kubernetes/manifests, then read the addon mechanisms mentioned in the issue. Done means kube-proxy is deployed as a DaemonSet through the addon mechanism rather than as a static manifest.
