OSMT Release 2.2.0

[JohnKallies]

Announcing the release of OSMT 2.2.0

This release brings several defect fixes, and completes the feature enhancement for roles within OSMT (admin, curator, viewer).

Deploying this release will require a delete and reindex for the supporting ElasticSearch indices. See Reindex after changes to Elasticsearch @Document index classes in the API module README.md for guidance.

Defect fixes:

• RSD results are now presented in a consistent sort order by category and name, case insensitive. Previously, when results where sorted by category (the default), the RSDs were correctly sorted by category, but therein not sorted consistently. This would sometimes cause an RSD to appear on multiple pages in the results. When paging through results to add RSDs to collections, a given RSD might be shown twice, or not be shown at all. All previous sorting was done case sensitive, so "AWS" would appear before "Abstract".
• A quoted search terms will now return RSDs matching that exact complete term. Previously, searching "Communications" in Category would return all RSDs containing that term, including both "Communications" and "Argumentative and Alternative Communications". When quoting the search term, the expected behavior is to only return RSDs with the exact category "Communications", and not others like "Argumentative and Alternative Communications".

Enhancements

• The complete RSD library can now be exported as CSV by OSMT users with the Admin role. If the instance is deployed with roles disabled, then any authenticated user can export the library.

Patching and Developer Tooling:

• Base Docker images were upgraded to oraclelinux:9, as CentOS has been retired.
• Added documentation supporting an LDD for OSMT. See here for more details.
