### Description I introduced a performance optimization in #12258, and after testing, we found that the kubernetes performance optimization would invalid after some time. The reason is that after watch progress is done in kubernetes service discovery for some time, it will re-list all data. At this point, addresses of all tables that store service discovery are changed, but the content of nodes does not change. This causes `up_conf.nodes` to never reference the `new_nodes` table at https://github.com/apache/apisix/blob/9e5163c60b74589672b10201355b855098166f4a/apisix/upstream.lua#L305-L317 because their addresses are different and it goes to the branch where equality is determined by value in every downstream requests. This branch has significant performance overhead: https://github.com/apache/apisix/blob/9e5163c60b74589672b10201355b855098166f4a/apisix/utils/upstream.lua#L50-L61 ### Checklist - [ ] I have explained the need for this PR and the problem it solves - [ ] I have explained the changes or the new features added to this PR - [ ] I have added tests corresponding to this change - [ ] I have updated the documentation to reflect this change - [ ] I have verified that this change is backward compatible (If not, please discuss on the [APISIX mailing list](https://github.com/apache/apisix/tree/master#community) first) <!-- Note 1.
