 For both of the aforementioned cases, we will use a field in the DeploymentStatus,
-called Uniquifier, to create a unique hash value when a hash collision happens.
-The Deployment controller will compute the hash value of {template+uniquifier},

 effect of this hash collision avoidance mechanism is that we don't need to
 migrate ReplicaSets that were created with adler.
