Spin - v0.8.0

This is the v0.8.0 release of Spin and it brings a number of features, improvements and bug fixes.

This release also contains groundwork for some larger initiatives, such as OCI support and supply chain security. If curious about the vision for these and other efforts, check out the SIP (Spin Improvement Proposal) directory. Perhaps it will spark an idea for a SIP of your own!

Some highlights in v0.8.0 at a glance:

• TLS support has been added for Redis, PostgreSQL and MySQL.
• Spin now ships with an initial prototype for OCI registry support. The spin oci command provides an early preview of functionality, including pushing, pulling and running Spin apps in the form of OCI artifacts.
• Initial support for Trigger Plugins has now been added. See the updated spin-timer example for a sample of how they can be used.
• We're starting to tackle supply chain security in Spin, starting with automated auditing of third-party dependencies.
• Rust Docs for Spin are now being auto-published.
• Code coverage reports are now being uploaded for Spin’s main branch.

As always, thanks to contributors old and new for helping improve Spin on a daily basis! 🎉
