Release v0.26.0 · zarf-dev/zarf

⚠️ Breaking changes

Image CRCs are now appended to tags instead of repository names to better dedupe image layers on push by @Racer159 in #1590

When upgrading you will need to reinitialize the cluster and redeploy image-containing packages to create the new image refs. (i.e. 127.0.0.1:31999/library/nginx-3793515731:1.23.3 becomes 127.0.0.1:31999/library/nginx:1.23.3-zarf-3793515731) - existing pods will continue to run but may need to pull the new images on failures
Zarf also now officially requires Big Bang version 1.54.0 or greater in the Big Bang extension by @dgershman in #1559

[BETA] Zarf Web UI now supports the Package Deployment Lifecycle by @mike-winberry in #1522

To launch the web UI, you can run zarf dev ui - we will be looking for feedback and volunteers to test this further soon
