Help me map this to infra's needs. Right now generally a quota is given,
and that's as much as a provider can let infra use for free.
So to take advantage of this, spot instances would need to have either
0 impact on one's quota, or a separate quota. Yes? The word quota does
not appear in the spec, so I'm curious to hear how that would be managed
in general, but especially for nodepool usage by infra.
