Foreman 1.24.0-RC2 is ready for testing

Foreman 1.24.0-RC2 is now available for testing, big thanks to everyone who contributed and especially to @zhunting and @evgeni who have been taking part in building this release.

Please help by testing and getting it release-ready, and let us know if you hit any issue when upgrading or installing the release candidate either here or on our issue tracker.

RC1 has been found to have several significant issues during build and was aborted, leading to this release. We expect RC3 to be released in a couple of weeks, and if no significant issues are found, 1.24.0 will be released in about a month.
