Core Component Updates

• Introduce a pre-alpha version of litmus m-agent (Machine Agent) which is a platform-generic daemon agent that can remotely inject faults into an OS scoped resource, as part of the LitmusChaos Experiments.

• Adds an pre-alpha version of process kill experiment that makes use of m-agent to inject process kill chaos in the target OS.

• Enhance pod network latency experiment to support jitter functionality in the network delay simulated by the experiment.

• Introduces new helm charts (kube-azure and kube-gcp) for azure and gcp chaos experiments.

• Fixes to support the custom experiment for pod level stress-chaos experiment (cpu, memory, IO). This will enable us to use any custom names for the experiment.

• Adds new e2e-pipeline for testing the azure chaos experiments from hub. It supports both nightly and manual builds.

• Updates failstep messages for Litmus Go SDK and refactor azure chaos experiment to improve the code quality.

Chaos Center Updates

• Fixes the issue with Minikube & GRPC by making localhost as grpc endpoint.

• Fixes the Role-based permission issues in some specific APIs.
