Release of Vitess v23.0.6

Summary

VRLog Feature Removed

The VRLog feature — a streaming log of VReplication events served at VTTablet's /debug/vrlog HTTP endpoint, disabled by default since v22 — has been removed. The --vreplication-enable-http-log flag that enabled it is now a deprecated no-op and will be removed in v26.

Migration: remove --vreplication-enable-http-log from VTTablet startup arguments.

Impact: The /debug/vrlog endpoint no longer exists. Passing --vreplication-enable-http-log logs a deprecation warning and has no effect.

See #20467 for details.
