Changes

This release updates how anonymous authentication works in the impersonation proxy, and updates all project dependencies.

Minor Changes

• The heuristic used by the Concierge impersonation proxy to decide if the cluster supports anonymous authentication, and therefore decides whether the impersonation proxy should allow anonymous authentication on k8s API requests, was updated to better support recent AKS and GKE clusters which allow anonymous authentication only at the health endpoints. See PR description for more details. (#2869)
• Updates Golang to v1.25.6, and updates all other project dependencies. (#2873, #2872, #2837, #2838, #2831, #2827, #2823)
