Removed featured flag from all the other blogs.


## A quick history

[Magistrala](https://github.com/absmach/magistrala) started as a full-featured open-source IoT platform — handling device connectivity, multi-tenancy, access control, the Rules Engine, Alarms, Reports, and more. Over time, we extracted its core messaging and infrastructure layer into a separate project: [SuperMQ](https://github.com/absmach/supermq).

Also, mention that now we have a separate core messaging called FluxMQ. So now, we have a stack that consists of Magistrala, FluxMQ, Hardware components, and Propeller. Give a short description of each and relevant add links:

  • FluxMQ - cloud and edge messaging backbone - a versatile, efficient and high-performance message broker that runs on edge and cloud, clusters and scales and supports event store for internal service synchronization.
  • Magistrala - a cloud IoT platform framework, that provides mentioned features and integrates with FluxMQ for messaging to provide a flexible framework for building IoT solutions.
  • Hardware (S0) - modular IoT gateway solutions for smart metering, industrial IoT, and edge computing. S0 module and Base Board deliver multi-protocol connectivity with open-source hardware and professional support.
  • Propeller - a cutting-edge orchestrator for WebAssembly workloads across the Cloud-Edge continuum.

Something like this.

Let's give this post a little bit more of a storytelling note - first, explain why we split, what was the intended stack, what's the reasons we are merging, what's FluxMQ and what's the new stack. In that order. Maybe a diagram would be nice.
