aws-patch v1.10.5

Added

• Full AL2023 point-release list logged on every run. Previously
  only the single highest pending release was logged
  (Newer Amazon Linux release available: X). Now every pending point
  release is listed with its exact dnf upgrade --releasever=...
  command, and the run explicitly states whether the kernel will be
  included or excluded when crossing -- visible in --check,
  --dry-run, and live runs alike, not just the interactive picker.

Fixed

• --kernel didn't govern the AL2023 release-crossing step. Crossing
  a point-release boundary applies that release's full package set,
  which very often bundles a kernel bump alongside everything else.
  pm_upgrade_releasever always applied it unconditionally regardless of
  --kernel -- meaning a plain --yes run (no --kernel) could still
  silently end up installing a new kernel, just because a release
  boundary happened to be pending, completely defeating --kernel's
  opt-in guarantee for that specific path.
  • lib/dnf.sh: new pm_upgrade_releasever_no_kernel(), mirroring
    pm_full_upgrade_no_kernel() -- runs the release-crossing
    transaction with native --exclude='kernel*'.
  • aws-patch.sh: run_patch() now selects the correct
    releasever-upgrade function based on FLAG_KERNEL, exactly like it
    already does for the normal full-upgrade step. Dry-run messaging
    updated to match.
• New test coverage confirming pm_upgrade_releasever_no_kernel excludes
  the kernel and pm_upgrade_releasever (the --kernel path) does not.
  81/81 tests passing.
