This release:

• Fixes issue where argument marked is_preview=True would not always be handled correctly.
• Fixes issue where ensuring a directory exists could cause a race condition.

• Adds ability to declare that command groups, commands, and arguments are in a preview status and therefore might change or be removed. This is done by passing the kwarg is_preview=True.
• Adds a generic StatusTag class to knack.util that allows you to create your own colorized tags like [Preview] and [Deprecated].
• When an incorrect command name is entered, Knack will now attempt to suggest the closest alternative.

Always read from local for configured_default

Support local context chained config file
