An initial release candidate for v0.20.1.

Features

• Fix exception on yml files with all comments 3568
• Fix store_failures config when defined as a modifier for unique and not_null tests (#3575, #3577)
• Fix where config with relationships test by refactoring test SQL. Note: The default relationships test now includes CTEs, and may need reimplementing on adapters that don't support CTEs nested inside subqueries. (#3579, #3583)
