Release 4.8 is out

[Chenxiong Qi]

Hi all,

I'm pleased to announce that a new version 4.8 is released.

Highlight
---------

Python 3.8 is added to test environment and Nitrate should work with Python 3.8
well.

eslint-plugin-jsdoc is used to lint jsdocs in the JavaScript source code.

Lots of duplication of templates and JavaScript code of plans, cases and runs
search result are removed.

Deployment pipeline is added to Travis CI. From now on, when tag a new release
with a version, e.g. v4.8, the pipeline is triggered automatically to publish
Python source distribution package, build RPM in Copr, build a container image
and publish the image to Quay.io registry.

Bookmark application is removed entirely.

Get and install
---------------

From PyPI::

    pip install nitrate-tcms

From image registry::

    docker pull quay.io/nitrate/nitrate:4.8

Refer to :ref:`how_to_run` for details of installation.

Database Migration
------------------

Bookmark app is removed entirely. Before running database migration, ensure
existing bookmark data is backed up.

Run migrations::

    django-admin --settings=tcms.settings.produce migrate
