Update to the latest Noda version
Update to the latest AppInsights version, AppInsights key added to the appsettings.json
Password strictness is defined by appsettings.json
Updating passwords takes immediate effect (no longer requires restart)

This allows you to startup immediately following deployment in a "Production" (or Staging, etc.) environment without having to manual create the environment config files.

site.[Environment].config, meta.[Environment].Config, and appSettings.[Environment].Config become optional files [in ConfigurationBuilder()..AddXmlFile()], So if they are missing you will not fail, login and save settings will create new files for you.

siteSecurity.[Environment].Config and IISUrlRewrite.[Environment].Config are now created as part of the start up checks.This will not impact existing deployments.

Saves the description field when edit/adding posts from the admin pages.
