Release Summary

This release adds Helm v4 compatibility across the Helm modules and improves k8s_drain with check mode. When you explicitly allow evicting unmanaged pods, pods with local storage, or pods managed by a DaemonSet, those cases are reported as informational output instead of module warnings.

Minor Changes

• helm_info - Ensure compatibility with Helm v4 (#​1038).
• helm_plugin - Ensure compatibility with Helm v4 (#​1038).
• helm_plugin_info - Ensure compatibility with Helm v4 (#​1038).
• helm_pull - Ensure compatibility with Helm v4 (#​1038).
• helm_registry_auth - Ensure compatibility with Helm v4 (#​1038).
• helm_registry_auth - add new option plain_http to allow insecure http connection when running helm registry login (#​1090).
• helm_repository - Ensure compatibility with Helm v4 (#​1038).
• k8s_drain - Add support for check_mode (#​1086).
• k8s_drain - Convert module warnings into informational displays when users explicitly request the deletion of unmanaged pods, pods with local storage, or those managed by a DaemonSet (#​1037).

Bugfixes

• Helm - Allow taking ownership of existing Kubernetes resources on the first installation of a Helm release. Previously, the take_ownership parameter was always disabled during the initial install, preventing resource adoption (#​1034).
