Pelican v7.21.0

This release comes with UX improvements on Pelican Client, HTCondor Plugin, and Servers. It also provides a short circuit mechanism for Caches/Origins with outdated XRootD config files, and other useful updates.

Breaking Changes & Upgrade Notes for Admins

This release further standardizes using a Federation's "Discovery URL" as the root of trust when the Federation central services generate authZ tokens – this may cause issues if the Director's private signing key does NOT match one of the keys exported by the Discovery URL's issuer metadata. To check for metadata alignment, visit the /.well-known/pelican-configuration path at your Discovery URL and follow the jwks_uri link. Compare the keys here with the keys from the jwks_uri link at your Director's /.well-known/openid-configuration path. The Director's keys should be in the list you accessed via the Discovery URL.
