Cleanup archived or unmaintained or experimental or deprecated dependencies or features #20983
Description
What would you like to be added?
We need to try to cleanup (or find alternatives) for the archived and unmaintained dependencies:
- Evaluate and replace deprecated
https://github.com/google/btree#20991 - Protobuf: cleanup both golang/protobuf and gogo/protobuf #14533
- Remove the dependency on grpc-go's experimental API (e.g. resolver & balancer) #15145
- Remove the deprecated
grpc.DialContext#19772 - Evaluate & potentially replace
https://github.com/soheilhy/cmux#18032
Why is this needed?
To ensure stability
