- Breaking: many API renames and internal moves (e.g., configcheck.ValidateConfigFromFactories, configparser.Parser, component.DefaultBuildInfo, consumererror.Permanent, config.NewID variants, extension/storage)
- Enhancements: added Dependabot CI, updated OTLP to v0.10.0, added Flags fields to data points, introduced feature gate library, and versioned internal telemetry metrics
- Bugfix: fixed panic when service.NewCommand is not used
