Release v9.7.1

[github-actions]

Proposed Release Notes

• Reintroduced throttled reading of dependency tree at startup to prevent EMFILE issues.

• Improved Restify support

  • Added a new test stanza to run restify >=10 on Node 18.
  • Update our versioned tests to support Restify 9.0.0.

• Enhanced agent to lay foundation for supporting for Code Level Metrics via Codestream. Note that while changes have been made to the agent for Codestream, this integration is not fully finished and should not be used.

  • Attached code level metrics attributes to middleware spans when config.code_level_metrics.enabled is true.
  • Added configuration option to toggle Code Level Metrics: code_level_metrics.enabled.
    • It defaults to false.
    • The environment variable is NEW_RELIC_CODE_LEVEL_METRICS_ENABLED.
  • Added a utility to retrieve Code Level Metrics(CLM) metadata from a function reference.

• Improved the readability and maintainability of agent by reducing the Cognitive Complexity of various aspects of the agent.

  • Refactored the Exception class and its helpers to reduce the cognitive complexity. Additionally, fixed all JSDoc warnings.
  • Updated deep equality check to use native util.isDeepStrictEqual().
  • Refactored Error Collector to reduce complexity and fixed/added JSDocs.
  • Reduced cognitive complexity in lib/config/attribute-filter.js and enhance JSDocs.
  • Refactored lib/system-info.js to reduce complexity by switching to async/await instead of callbacks for async control.
  • Addressed cognitive complexity and jsdoc issues in lib/agent.js.
  • Addressed cognitive complexity and jsdoc issues in api.js.

• added newrelic.noticeError() example to our API docs.

• Upgraded @grpc/grpc-js from 1.6.9 to 1.7.3.

• Upgraded @grpc/proto-loader from 0.6.13 to 0.7.3.

• Removed deprecated and failing suites from benchmark tests.

• Updated code coverage to upload all reports at end of CI run.
