kubernetes: IPset missing from gcr.io/google_containers/hyperkube-amd64

Is this a BUG REPORT or FEATURE REQUEST?: /kind bug

What happened: Upgraded to Kuberenetes 1.9 and now IPVS mode in kube-proxy stopped working due to

I1218 09:59:28.446570       1 feature_gate.go:184] feature gates: map[SupportIPVSProxyMode:true]
E1218 09:59:28.463326       1 server_others.go:299] can't determine whether to use ipvs proxy, error: error getting ipset version, error: executable file not found in $PATH
I1218 09:59:28.464584       1 server_others.go:138] Using iptables Proxier

What you expected to happen:

Normal startup as it’s been working flawless in 1.8.5

How to reproduce it (as minimally and precisely as possible): Use kube-proxy with IPVS service mode on 1.9.0 hyperkube image from GCR

Anything else we need to know?: If i exec into the running kube-proxy pod and do apt install ipset then restart the container kube-proxy starts in ipvs mode fine
