release 24.1

After a long pause, due to interesting times at the beginning of the "golden 2020s", we are finally back with release 24.1. Many things have changed in Galaxy. It is deployed completely differently and gained many new features with many new dependencies. We recommend starting with a fresh /export folder and contacting us if you encounter any problems.

Thanks to @jyotipm29 we are back on track 😄
