[ClusterLabs] pcs 0.11.8 released

[Michal Pospíšil (he / him)]

I am happy to announce the latest release of pcs, version 0.11.8.

Source code is available at:
https://github.com/ClusterLabs/pcs/archive/refs/tags/v0.11.8.tar.gz
or
https://github.com/ClusterLabs/pcs/archive/refs/tags/v0.11.8.zip

Same as the new pcs-0.12 release, this pcs-0.11 release is deprecating
features that are planned to be removed in Pacemaker 3 to ease the
transition to the new major version.

This release brings the new pcs status wait/query commands which
allow for better scripting usage. Amongst many other scripting uses,
they can be used to check for any resource state in comparison with the
'--wait' option in resource commands which have hardcoded expected
states.

There is also now a possibility to export resource and stonith defaults
and operation defaults and many more new checks and bug fixes.

Complete change log for this release:
### Added
- Support for output formats `json` and `cmd` to resources/stonith
  defaults and resource/stonith op defaults config commands
  ([RHEL-16231])
- Add lib commands `cib_options.resource_defaults_config` and
  `cib_options.operation_defaults_config` to API v2
- Add lib command `cluster.wait_for_pcmk_idle` to API v2
- Add lib command `status.resources_status` to API v2
- Add `pcs status wait` CLI command ([RHEL-25854])
- Add `pcs status query resource` CLI commands ([RHEL-21051])

### Fixed
- Do not put empty uid/gid corosync configuration options to an uidgid
  file when not specified in `pcs cluster uidgid add` command. Empty
  options cause corosync start failure. ([ghissue#772])
- Do not allow fencing levels other than 1..9 ([RHEL-2977])
- Adjust OCF metadata processing to support the latest pacemaker changes
  ([RHEL-27492])
- Use different process creation method for multiprocessing module in
  order to avoid deadlock on process termination. ([ghissue#780],
  [RHEL-28749])
- Do not wrap pcs output to terminal width if pcs's stdout is redirected
  ([RHEL-36514])
- Report an error when an invalid resource-discovery is specified
  ([RHEL-7701])
- 'pcs booth destroy' now works for nodes without a cluster (such as
  arbitrators) ([RHEL-7737])
- Validate SBD_DELAY_START and SBD_STARTMODE options ([RHEL-17962])

### Deprecated
- Pcs produces warnings about features planned to be removed in
  pacemaker 3 [1]:
  - score in order constraints
  - using rkt in bundles
  - upstart and nagios resources
  - some date-spec and duration options in rules


Thanks / congratulations to everyone who contributed to this release,
including Ivan Devat, Michal Pospisil, Miroslav Lisik, Peter Romancik
and Tomas Jelinek.

Cheers,
Michal
