release SecureDrop 2.10.1

[cfm]

This is a tracking issue for the release of SecureDrop 2.10.1, which will be a translations-only point release on top of v2.10.0.

Tentatively scheduled as follows:

Pre-release announcement: TK Release date: October ~17~ 22

Release manager: @cfm Deputy release manager: @zenmonkeykstop ~~Localization manager:~~ Communications manager: @nathandyer

Test plan

Because this is a translations-only release, QA will be limited to:

• [x] CI passes on the release branch.
• [x] Diffoscope of (a) packages built from the release branch versus (b) v2.10.0 packages shows only the expected changes in translation files.

Final release

• [x] Push signed tag
• [x] Build final Debian packages (and preserve build log)
• [x] Diffoscope of (a) final packages versus (b) v2.10.0 packages shows only the expected changes in translation files, version strings, and timestamps.
• [x] Commit package build log to https://github.com/freedomofpress/build-logs
• [x] Pre-Flight: Test that install and upgrade from 2.10.0 to 2.10.1 works w/ prod repo debs (apt-qa.freedom.press polls the release branch in the LFS repo for the debs)
• [x] Pre-Flight: Test updater logic in Tails (apt-qa tracks the release branch in the LFS repo)
• [ ] Flip apt QA server to prod status (merge to main in the LFS repo)
• [ ] Merge Docs branch changes to main and verify new docs build in securedrop-docs repo
• [ ] Prepare release messaging

Post release

• [ ] Create GitHub release object
• [ ] Once release object is created, update versions in securedrop-docs and Wagtail
• [ ] Verify new docs show up on https://docs.securedrop.org
• [ ] Publish announcements
• [ ] Merge changelog back to develop
• [ ] Update roadmap wiki page: https://github.com/freedomofpress/securedrop/wiki/Development-Roadmap

Based on discussion today with @zenmonkeykstop, the release plan above assumes that we are comfortable doing "diffoscope-only" QA of a translations-only point release prior to preflight testing. @freedomofpress/securedrop-maintainers, please do let me know if you feel differently.

Deferred to next week to allow more time for review of new translations.

We plan to fininsh preflight QA of freedomofpress/securedrop-apt-prod#148 tomorrow for a ~Monday~ Tuesday release.
