Contributions summary:Rebecca primarily focused on improving the `consul-k8s` project's reliability and functionality. They made changes to the sync-catalog subcommand, fixing channel-related program exits and adding nil channel checks. They also implemented features, such as adding a command-line flag to optionally disable the syncing of ClusterIP services, and refactored parts of the codebase, including improvements to the handling of NodePort services, allowing the sync to use the node's internal or external IP address. The user also added a readiness check endpoint.
