General enhancements

This release includes enhancements to the following areas:

• TLS certificate management (#1288, #1330)
• Authorizer and ClaimMapper selection (#1291)
• tctl (#1304, #1313, #1316, #1375)
• API error handling & metrics (#1283, #1285, #1312)
• Logger and dynamic config (#1371, #1393 )

Additionally, Kafka has been completely removed as a dependency (#1347), and the Server has upgraded to use Go v1.16

Persistence layer improvements

• Better error handling for no hosts available in the pool error when using Cassandra (#1342, #1343, #1344, #1345)
• dryrun option in schema tools has been removed due to being error prone (#1300)

Changes to metrics

Metrics that were previously emitted with the namespace="all" tag are now emitted as "<metric_name>_total".
These include, but are not limited to latency related metrics such as service_latency.
The "old" way of tagging metrics will be removed in v1.10.0
