Move our CI to GKE 1.21 (#12509)

* bump GKE to 1.21

* clean up comments

* set a 60s stabilization window for the HPA e2e test

With GKE 1.21 I'm seeing this test fail regularly. My assumption is the scaling algorithms have changed
or have different timings. So rather than rely on the default 5 minute window let's make adjustments more aggresively.

* disable TestToScaleN due to it being really flakey with GKE 1.21
