Project Scoped repositories and clusters

The project scoped repositories and clusters is a feature that simplifies registering the repositories and cluster credentials.
Instead of requiring operators to set up in advance all clusters and git repositories that can be used, developers can now do
this on their own in a self-service manner.

Config Management Plugins V2

The Config Management Plugins V2 is set of enhancement of the existing config management plugins feature.
The list includes improved installation experience, ability to package plugin into a separate image and
improved plugin manifests discovery.

Resource tracking

Argo CD has traditionally tracked the resources it manages by the well-known "app.kubernetes.io/instance" property.
While using this property works ok in simple scenarios, it also has several limitations. ArgoCD now allows you to use
a new annotation (argocd.argoproj.io/tracking-id) for tracking your resources. Using this annotation is a much more flexible approach
as there are no conflicts with other Kubernetes tools, and you can easily install multiple Argo CD instances on the same clusters.
