* #2110 Review load balancing and independent fetching the list of services in `Kube` provider (#2111)

* Move the creation of the services list from the class field to the method, to prevent modification list from different threads

* Early return after data checking

* Add unit test for concurrent get list of services

* Add logging for invalid service configuration error in RoundRobin load balancer

* Code review by @raman-m

* Workaround for mistakes made during acceptance testing of load balancing versus service discovery, where tests designed for parallel requests were mistakenly executed sequentially. This resulted in load balancers being loaded by sequential `HttpClient` calls, which was a significant oversight.

* Let's DRY StickySessionsTests

* Add acceptance tests, but...
RoundRobin is not actually RoundRobin 😁 -> 😆

* Independent static indexing iterators per route via service names

* Stabilize `CookieStickySessions` load balancer.
Review tests after refactoring of `RoundRobin` load balancer

* Refactor Lease operation for load balancing.
Review LeastConnection load balancer

* Leasing mechanism in Round Robin load balancer

* Acceptance tests, final version

* Apply Retry pattern for K8s endpoint integration

* Fix IDE warnings and messages

* Follow suggestions and fix issues from code review by @ggnaegi

* Bump KubeClient from 2.4.10 to 2.5.8

* Fix warnings

* Final version of `Retry` pattern

* Quick code review by @raman-m

* added acceptance test for url regex bug

* moved acceptance test to routing tests

* Convert to theory: define 2 test cases

* #2119 Review load balancing (2nd round) and redesign `DefaultConsulServiceBuilder` with `ConsulProviderFactory` refactoring to make it thread safe and friendly (#2151)

* Review tests

* History of Service Discovery testing: add traits

* LoadBalancer traits

* #2119 Steps to Reproduce

* Reuse service handlers of `ConcurrentSteps`

* Reuse service counters of `ConcurrentSteps`

* Add LoadBalancer namespace and move classes

* Move `Lease`

* Move `LeaseEventArgs`

* Analyze load balancers aka `ILoadBalancerAnalyzer` interface objects

* Prefer using named local methods as delegates over anonymous methods for awesome call stack, ensuring the delegate's typed result matches the typed balancer's creator. Additionally, employ an IServiceProvider workaround.

* Review load balancing. Assert service & leasing counters as concurrent step. Final version of acceptance test.

* Fixed naming violation for asynchronous methods: `Lease` -> `LeaseAsync`

* Fix ugly reflection issue of dymanic detection in favor of static type property

* Propagate the `ConsulRegistryConfiguration` object through `HttpContext` in the scoped version of the default service builder, utilizing the injected `IHttpContextAccessor` object.
Update `ConsulProviderFactory`.
Update docs.
Update tests.

* Add tests from clean experiment

* Final review of the tests

* Review `IHttpContextAccessor` logic.
Convert anonymous delegates to named ones in placeholders processing

* Tried to enhance more, but failed

+> Codenamed: **[Blue Olympic Fiend](https://www.youtube.com/live/j-Ou-ggS718?si=fPPwmOwjYEZq70H9&t=9518)**
+> Read the Docs: [Ocelot 23.3](https://ocelot.readthedocs.io/en/{0}/)
+> Hot fixed versions: [23.3.0](https://github.com/ThreeMammals/Ocelot/releases/tag/23.3.0), [23.3.3](https://github.com/ThreeMammals/Ocelot/releases/tag/23.3.3)
+> Milestone: [v23.3 Hotfixes](https://github.com/ThreeMammals/Ocelot/milestone/8)
+
+❤️ A heartfelt "Thank You" to [Roman Shevchik](https://github.com/antikorol) and [Massimiliano Innocenti](https://github.com/minnocenti901) for their contributions in testing and reporting the [Service Discovery](https://github.com/ThreeMammals/Ocelot/labels/Service%20Discovery) issues, #2110 and #2119, respectively!
+
+### ℹ️ About
+This release delivers a number of bug fixes for the predecessor's [23.3.0](https://github.com/ThreeMammals/Ocelot/releases/tag/23.3.0) release, which is full of new features but was not tested well. All bugs were combined into the [v23.3 Hotfixes](https://github.com/ThreeMammals/Ocelot/milestone/8) milestone.
+
+Following the substantial refactoring of [Service Discovery](https://github.com/ThreeMammals/Ocelot/blob/main/docs/features/servicediscovery.rst) providers in the [23.3.0](https://github.com/ThreeMammals/Ocelot/releases/tag/23.3.0) release, the community identified and we have acknowledged several [critical service discovery defects](https://github.com/ThreeMammals/Ocelot/issues?q=is%3Aissue+milestone%3A%22v23.3+Hotfixes%22+label%3A%22Service+Discovery%22) with providers such as [Kube](https://github.com/ThreeMammals/Ocelot/blob/main/docs/features/kubernetes.rst) and [Consul](https://github.com/ThreeMammals/Ocelot/blob/main/docs/features/servicediscovery.rst#consul). The `Kube` provider, while somewhat unstable, remained operational; however, the `Consul` provider was entirely non-functional.
+
+📓 If your projects rely on the [Service Discovery](https://ocelot.readthedocs.io/en/latest/features/servicediscovery.html) feature and cannot function without it, please upgrade to this version to utilize the full list of features of version [23.3.0](https://github.com/ThreeMammals/Ocelot/releases/tag/23.3.0).
+
+### 🧑‍💻 Technical Information
+A comprehensive explanation of the technical details would span several pages; therefore, it is advisable for fans of Ocelot to review all pertinent technical information within the issue descriptions associated with [the milestone](https://github.com/ThreeMammals/Ocelot/milestone/8).
+Our team has implemented some **Breaking Changes** which we urge you to review carefully (details follow).
+
+### ⚠️ Breaking Changes
+Listed by priority:
+- `ILoadBalancer` interface alteration: Method `Lease` is now `LeaseAsync`.
+  Interface FQN: `Ocelot.LoadBalancer.LoadBalancers.ILoadBalancer`
+  Method FQN: `Ocelot.LoadBalancer.LoadBalancers.ILoadBalancer.LeaseAsync`
+- `DefaultConsulServiceBuilder` constructor modification: The first parameter's type has been changed from `Func<ConsulRegistryConfiguration>` to `IHttpContextAccessor`.
+  Class FQN: `Ocelot.Provider.Consul.DefaultConsulServiceBuilder`
+  Constructor signature: `public DefaultConsulServiceBuilder(IHttpContextAccessor contextAccessor, IConsulClientFactory clientFactory, IOcelotLoggerFactory loggerFactory)`
+- Adjustments to `Lease` type: The `Lease` has been restructured from a class to a structure and elevated in the namespace hierarchy.
+  Struct FQN: `Ocelot.LoadBalancer.Lease`
+
+📓 Should your [custom solutions](https://ocelot.readthedocs.io/en/latest/search.html?q=custom) involve overriding default Ocelot classes and their behavior, redevelopment or at least recompilation of the solution, followed by deployment, will be necessary.
