Fixed a bug causing runaway logs in istiod after disabling the default ingress controller. (Issue #31336)

Fixed an issue with metadata handling for the Azure platform, allowing tagsList serialization of tags on instance metadata. (Issue #31176)
Fixed an issue with DNS proxying causing StatefulSets addresses to not be load balanced. (Issue #31064)
