Release 2.9.0 + new website

terranix 2.9.0 expands the flake-parts module with OpenTofu support, adds ephemeral and moved/removed blocks, ships a new file helper and a metadata passthru mechanism

This is the first release in 19 months.

For that reason, the changelog is unusually long.

It is also the first release made by @sshine, the current terranix maintainer.

As part of the transition, the website was migrated from mdbook to hugo and the theme was expanded from @mrVanDalo’s sandstone theme into a theme based on solarized-light (with a solarized-dark darkmode). DNSSEC was fixed for the domain, which is now hosted at deSEC.io.
