Release 1.0 Franklin
This marks our v1.0 release! There are no substantial changes here that decided for a 1.0 release. Instead, this has been a long time coming where we have thought about the stability of convert2rhel and when to make the major version jump. We will now follow a major.minor
version flow where every new major version we do will include breaking changes to the previous version.
Changes in this version include:

- Updating GRUB2 bootloader images (#417)
- Warning if multiple authentication sources are specified (#451)

Security hardening
- Introduced a user-customizable config file for passing RHSM credentials safely (#451, #562)
