- Added TLS and basic auth to HTTP endpoints and new promtool subcommands for web config checks and OpenMetrics block creation.
- Enhanced HTTP API matcher handling, fast‑fail empty matchers, and improved SD and TSDB logging/efficiency (IPv6 label, EC2 client reuse, compaction logs, GC reduction).
- Fixed several bugs: double channel close in HTTP API, DNS SD CNAME handling, and Kubernetes SD label selector config errors.
