Airflow

On May 1, we released Airflow 2.6.0, featuring Notifiers, a new object in Airflow designed to be an extensible layer to add notifications to DAGs. Users can build notification logic from a new base object and call it directly from their DAG files. Additional significant changes include consolidated handling of tasks stuck in queued, removal of `scheduler.tasks.running`, definition of the `cleanup()` method in BaseTrigger as asynchronous, and change of default permissions of file task handler log directories and files to “owner + group” writeable. Also included: many more changes, new features, improvements, bug fixes and internal changes.
