v1.1.0 planning

[AkihiroSuda]

I'll release v1.1.0-beta.0 after merging:

• Enable gRPC port forwarder by default again #3431

Probably we should consider moving some items in https://github.com/lima-vm/lima/milestone/26 to v1.2

---

Good to have in v1.1:

• Enable gRPC port forwarder by default again #3046 (Enable gRPC port forwarder by default again #3431)
• sudoers: show the command only on darwin #3425
• templates: add Ubuntu 25.04, but keep 24.10 as the default (until Apple fixes Linux v6.12 incompatibility on Intel Mac) #3433

Still good to have in v1.1, but can be postponed:

• vz: remove "basedisk"; rename "diffdisk" #1706
• qemu: Intel on ARM: change the default CPU from qemu64 to something newer #3063
• Consider setting CONFIG_GUESTAGENT_ARCH_{ARMV7L, RISCV64, S390X, ...} to n (for Homebrew) #3321
• Consider setting GUESTAGENT_COMPRESS=y by default #3325

Better to postpone:

• limactl start should optionally show the progress of the provision scripts #2183
• templates: add almalinux-kitten-10 #3084

We should try our best to release v1.1 right after containerd v2.1 (ETA: May 7) and nerdctl v2.1 (ETA: May 7 + maybe a few days)

The last remaining blocker:

• make update-templates fails: ./hack/update-template-almalinux-kitten.sh: line 72: almalinux_jq_filter_directory: readonly variable #3558
