[DRBD-announce] linstor-server 1.25.0 release

[Rene Peinthor]

Hi!

And here is the final release of 1.25.0 and just copied the feature
description over from rc.1,
but wanted to note an additional important change/bugfix with error-report
listing.
We now a limit parameter for error-reports list queries and can now report
the total count
of error-reports without having to fetch their header data. This should
vastly improve
the prometheus /metrics queries and also get rid of 10s timeout errors in
the logs.

The biggest feature in this release is that Linstor got aware of disk
failures detected by DRBD.
If a disk fails now and DRBD switches the resource to a diskless, Linstor
will mark those
resource with a skip-disk flag and will add the --skip-disk argument to
drbd commands.
Without this feature Linstor would mostly fail on most commands because it
couldn't adjust
drbd resources and even unrelated resources might have become problematic.

We also added IP_TOS socket options to improve Linstor network
communication on congested networks.

## [1.25.0] - 2023-10-25

- Added ErrorReport when sending a ping request fails
- Sos-report's tar command no longer use --verbose
- ErrorReports list now works with paging and a default limit.
  Fixing node timeouts on large error-reports

resources
