4.0.0

Upgrade Notes
*************

* Support for python2 in ironic-python-agent was dropped in the
  Ussuri release however it was still possible to build (non-
  functional) python2 images for CentOS 7. This python2 support is now
  dropped from the image build also. As part of this change, the *pip-
  and- virtualenv* element is not longer a dependency, so any custom
  elements which depend on this element will need to either include it
  explicitly or migrate to the recommended *ensure-venv* element.

* The tinyipa image is now built using tinycore 13.x


Bug Fixes
*********

* Fixes issues with ramdisks potentially crashing when starting due
  to systemd attempting to access a random number generator before
  udevd has been launched. Depending on the mode of operation and
  underlying and configuration, i.e. in FIPS mode, the system could
  have crashed as a result. We will now always create the character
  devices devices, which can be used early in the boot sequence.


Other Notes
***********

* We now build and publish diskimage-builder debian based image on
  arm64.

* On RHEL and CentOS 8 and later the *dhcp-all-interfaces*
  diskimage- builder element is now configured to only apply
  NetworkManager configuration by default. The *dhcp-all-interfaces*
  service will not be enabled. To re-enable the *dhcp-all-interfaces*
  service, set "DIB_DHCP_NETWORK_MANAGER_AUTO=false" in the
  environment.

  NetworkManager is quite capable to do automatic interface
  configuration. NetworkManager will by default try to auto-configure
  any interface with no configuration, it will use DHCP for IPv4 and
  Router Advertisements to decide how to initialize IPv6.
