[Certbot-dev] Certbot 1.4.0 Release

[Erica Portnoy]

Certbot 1.4.0 has just been released. The changelog entry for the
release is:

## 1.4.0 - 2020-05-05

### Added

* Turn off session tickets for apache plugin by default when appropriate.
* Added serial number of certificate to the output of `certbot certificates`
* Expose two new environment variables in the authenticator and cleanup
scripts used by
  the `manual` plugin: `CERTBOT_REMAINING_CHALLENGES` is equal to the
number of challenges
  remaining after the current challenge, `CERTBOT_ALL_DOMAINS` is a
comma-separated list
  of all domains challenged for the current certificate.
* Added TLS-ALPN-01 challenge support in the `acme` library. Support of this
  challenge in the Certbot client is planned to be added in a future
release.
* Added minimal proxy support for OCSP verification.
* On Windows, hooks are now executed in a Powershell shell instead of a
CMD shell,
  allowing both `*.ps1` and `*.bat` as valid scripts for Certbot.

### Changed

* Reorganized error message when a user entered an invalid email address.
* Stop asking interactively if the user would like to add a redirect.
* `mock` dependency is now conditional on Python 2 in all of our packages.
* Deprecate certbot-auto on Gentoo, macOS, and FreeBSD.

### Fixed

* When using an RFC 8555 compliant endpoint, the `acme` library no
longer sends the
  `resource` field in any requests or the `type` field when responding
to challenges.
* Fix nginx plugin crash when non-ASCII configuration file is being read
(instead,
  the user will be warned that UTF-8 must be used).
* Fix hanging OCSP queries during revocation checking - added a 10
second timeout.
* Standalone servers now have a default socket timeout of 30 seconds, fixing
  cases where an idle connection can cause the standalone plugin to hang.
* Parsing of the RFC 8555 application/pem-certificate-chain now
tolerates CRLF line
  endings. This should fix interoperability with Buypass' services.
