Release Announcement: Kapacitor 1.5.8

A new maintenance release for Kapacitor is available now, addressing security vulnerabilities by updating package validation mechanics to use SHA-256 instead of MD5. This update includes various fixes and improvements, such as added support for HTTP sources in SideLoadNode, performance enhancements, and bug fixes. Specifically, Kapacitor now sends data to InfluxDB compressed as gzip by default, preallocates GroupIDs to increase performance, and addresses issues with the alert-handler match function. The release is available on the downloads page, and users are encouraged to report any issues or questions through the InfluxDB Community Slack or Github Repo.
