WARNING: Upcoming changes to CLI packaging

Beginning with the next minor version, the influx CLI will no longer be packaged in releases from influxdb.
Future versions of the CLI will instead be released from the influx-cli
repository.

Users who wish to adopt the new CLI can download its latest release from GitHub
or from the InfluxData Downloads Portal.
