Instead of doing retries on 401 errors, use a mechanism from client-go which simply reloads the token periodically in the background. Also, don't stop logging errors after the first 401. These errors, if present, need to be addressed by the cluster operator, so we should make them more prominent. (cherry picked from commit c61c0fe)

Proposed commit message
[metricbeat] Refactor kubernetes bearer token authentication
Instead of doing retries on 401 errors, use a mechanism from client-go which simply reloads the token periodically in the background.
Also, don't stop logging errors after the first 401. These errors, if present, need to be addressed by the cluster operator, so we should make them more prominent.
We have a report of the current mechanism running into race conditions in some OpenShift clusters. The exact root cause is unknown, but this change should address it.
Checklist

After this change, we will continue logging errors when we get a 401 from the API Server of kubelet, whereas up until now we'd only log the first one.
