Juju 2.0-rc1 is here!

[Curtis Hovey-Canonical]

A new development release of Juju, 2.0-rc1, is here!


## What's New in RC1

* The Juju client now works on any Linux flavour. When bootstrapping
  with local tools, it's now possible to create a controller of any
  supported Linux series regardless of the Linux flavour the client
  is running on.
* Juju resolved command retries failed hooks by default:
  juju resolved <unit> // marks unit errors resolved and retries failed hooks
  juju resolved --no-retry <unit> //marks unit errors resolved w/o
retrying hooks
* MAAS 2.0 Juju provider has been updated to use MAAS API 2.0's owner
  data for instance tagging.
* Networking fixes for containers in MAAS 2.0 when the parent device is
  unconfigured. (#1566791)
* Azure provider performance has been enhanced, utilising Azure Resource
  Manager templates, and improved parallelisation.
* Azure provider now supports an "interactive" auth-type, making it much
  easier to set up credentials for bootstrapping. The "userpass"
  auth-type has been deprecated, and replaced with
  "service-principal-secret".
