v1.0.6

What's New

🧪 Test Suite Fixes (scripts/test.sh)

• Fixed rhctl run test: Removed invalid --host, --user, --ssh-port,
  and --password arguments from the rhctl run test case. These options are
  not accepted by rhctl run — server connection details are sourced from
  config.yml via target-servers.
• Fixed transfer patch-env test: Replaced assets/example1.txt (which
  contained plain text rhctl example file 1, not valid KEY=VALUE format)
  with new assets/example.env containing proper .env entries:

  RHCTL_APP_NAME=test-app
  RHCTL_APP_PORT=8080
  RHCTL_DB_HOST=localhost
  RHCTL_DB_PORT=5432
  export RHCTL_DEBUG=true
  

• Added --silent to all test commands: Every rhctl execute, rhctl transfer, rhctl patch, and rhctl run invocation in the test suite now
  includes the --silent flag to suppress interactive prompts during automated
  runs.

📦 New Test Asset

• assets/example.env: Valid .env file for patch-env testing with
  KEY=VALUE entries, comment lines, and export prefix support.
