Hi all,

sos-4.5.6 has been cut in upstream. This is a substantially smaller 
release than previous versions since moving to the faster cadence, but 
included are some important compatibility fixes that were reported late 
in the cycle. As always, please report any issues with this release via 
GH Issues, or feel free to reach out on IRC.

Release notes follow below - thank you to everyone for their contributions.


## Global Changes
+ snaps are now automatically built and pushed with new releases.
+ Fixed an incompatibility issue with python-3.12 runtimes.

## Report Changes
+ Added a new `ceph` profile for use in those types of environments.

### Plugin Changes
+ Fixed an issue with the enablement of ceph plugins possibly be 
erroneously enabled.
+ Fixed an issue with multiline regexes raising exceptions on python 
3.11 runtimes.
+ The `lustre` plugin now collects more debug parameters.
+ The `ssh` plugin now controls collection of user `~/.ssh/config` files 
via the `userconfs` option.
   + The default for the option is set to true/on/enabled, preserving 
previous behavior.

## Cleaner Changes
+ Obfuscated files will now have their permissions set to match the 
source file.
+ Refined the regex used to extract MAC addresses, and will now match 
underscore separated addresses.
