### Overview
This PR aims to improve the time it takes to load/import the kubernetes
executor module.
### Motivation
Executors are imported in more places now that various compatibility checks
are in core Airflow code (re: AIP-51). Also, decreasing import times is very
important for the work of executors vending CLI commands (see #29055), since
the CLI code in Airflow is particularly sensitive to slow imports (because all
code is loaded fresh each time you run an individual Airflow CLI command).
### The changes
Move some expensive typing related imports to be under TYPE_CHECKING.
Refactor expensive classes (other than the `KubernetesExecutor`) out of the
`kubernetes_executor.py` module into a utils module so they are only loaded at
runtime. Classes moved include `KubernetesJobWatcher`,
`AirflowKubernetesScheduler`, `ResourceVersion`
Also move some imports closer to their usage.
### Testing
I benchmarked these changes by writing a script to import the executor
module in a fresh python runtime and timing how long that takes (you can test
this yourself quickly from a bash shell by doing something like `time python -c
'from airflow.executors.local_executor import KubernetesExecutor'`). Then doing
that in a loop for several samples (with some randomness in the order for
fairness) both on main and on my development branch.
### Results
TBD
