v0.5.0

The v0.5.0 release is a minor release and is the first official release with bpfman-operator in a separate repository.

The key new feature in this release is support for the BpfApplication CRD, which allows an application developer to deploy a set of required eBPF programs using a single BpfApplication CRD rather than multiple separate *Program CRDs.

WARNING: Release v0.5.1 and earlier are no longer functional due to a change in the Cosign API. Please refer to the "Known Issues" section below for further details.

Known Issues

• Release v0.5.1 and earlier fail to load eBPF programs due to a change in the Cosign API (Issue 1241). In follow-on releases, whether to use Cosign was made configurable, but for release v0.5.1 and earlier, there is no workaround other than to use a later release.
