Mina Devnet 4.0.0 Automode Upgrade Release

[amc-ie]

❗ This release is only to be used as part of the Devnet Automode upgrade process ❗

---

This Mesa upgrade release contains everything you need to automatically upgrade to the Mesa era on Devnet.
The new approach will allow for much faster and seamless hard forks\upgrades for Mina in future and we are very excited to share it with you!

If you would prefer to handle the upgrade manually (i.e. in two parts), we recommend that you use our legacy stop slot build. This will require an additional upgrade after the Mesa Devnet netwokr starts; this will be made after the HF takes place.

For this release we have temporarily enabled node status tracking by default to help us track the successful progress towards the devnet upgrade. This behaviour can be turned off by starting the node using the --disable-node-status flag.

For detailed instructions on the upgrade schedule and recommended connection parameters, please refer to our upgrade documentation.

If you run into any issues, please include Release: 4.0.0-devnet in the name of any issues you create. Please report any issues you encounter here or join the discussion!

Complete Changelog since 3.4.0/Berkeley:

3.4.0...4.0.0-devnet

Supported environments include macOS, Linux (Debian 11, 12 and Ubuntu 20.04 LTS, Ubuntu 22.04 LTS & Ubuntu 24.04 LTS), and any host machine with Docker.

sudo apt-get update

Then, install the package(s) that you need:
