archlinux/archinstall v3.0.0 on GitHub

New features

TUI has been reworked and now uses curses, which allows us to do more complex layouts as well as give a new but familiar look and feel. Huge effort by @svartkanin in #2663

Lots of code quality improvements, including better testing possibilities
Add ruff linting support by @correctmost in #2654
Add get_loop_devices() by @codefiles in #2698
Exclude archiso loop device by @codefiles in #2715
Fix #1716 - Retry on mirror list fetching by @svartkanin in #2736
Move logging code outside of command execution try-except block by @codefiles in #2739
Fix #2735 - Erase luks partition explicitly by @svartkanin in #2745
fix #2740 - Handle empty iface selection by @svartkanin in #2747
Retry when speedtest fails. by @suica-me in #2657
Update configuration samples by @zenlord in #2754, #2781, #2782
Ignore disk encryption config when no password found by @svartkanin in #2779
Fix local mirror selection by @svartkanin in #2789
Include xss-lock when installing i3wm by @jackdesert & @opsrcode in #2791, #2796
Notify user of LOG_PATH upon completion by @jackdesert in #2804

Remove redundant simple-term-menu package by @svartkanin in #2824
Converting systemctl call to a simple ln call for debus reasons by @Torxed in #2835

swiss.py script is deprecated as the core API has changed quite a lot but keeping up with the script has not been feasible time wise. The reported usage should mean very few is affected by this and will be removed following the next release after this one.
Pacman() class will be re-worked in #2787, and will no longer take target= as an argument. Instead .strap now takes Pacman().strap(target=). It will also use libalpm for its operations in the future to do local package lookups rather than rely on archlinux.org JSON API for package search.
Versions henceforth will drop the prepended v notation, meaning the next version will be 3.0.1 instead of v3.0.0.
