**Updated** Using a new default value for the load balancing algorithm. The
new zero-value will be interpreted as UNSPECIFIED, where Istio will select
an appropriate default algorithm. ROUND_ROBIN is still supported, but is now
assigned a new integer value.
In addition, the value LEAST_CONN is now deprecated in favor of a new value
LEAST_REQUEST. It was previously poorly named and only remains for backward
compatibility.
