Client dependencies

Most of these features depend on having the client feature (and thus the config feature) enabled as they would not be much use without them.

--no-default-features

If you turn off all default features (say, to change tls stacks), you also turn off the normal client default feature. Without default features you get a crate roughly equivalent to kube-core.
