Release v0.12.1

[nfx]

• Bump actions/checkout from 4.1.7 to 4.2.0 (#295). In this version 4.2.0 release of the actions/checkout library, the team has added Ref and Commit outputs, which provide the ref and commit that were checked out, respectively. The update also includes dependency updates to braces, minor-npm-dependencies, docker/build-push-action, and docker/login-action, all of which were automatically resolved by Dependabot. These updates improve compatibility and stability for users of the library. This release is a result of contributions from new team members @yasonk and @lucacome. Users can find a detailed commit history, pull requests, and release notes in the associated links. The team strongly encourages all users to upgrade to this new version to access the latest features and improvements.
• Set catalog on SchemaDeployer to overwrite the default hive_metastore (#296). In this release, the default catalog for SchemaDeployer has been changed from hive_metastore to a user-defined catalog, allowing for more flexibility in deploying resources to different catalogs. A new dependency, databricks-labs-pytester, has been added with a version constraint of >=0.2.1, which may indicate the introduction of new testing functionality. The SchemaDeployer class has been updated to accept a catalog parameter and the tests for deploying and deleting schemas, tables, and views have been updated to reflect these changes. The test_deploys_schema, test_deploys_dataclass, and test_deploys_view tests have been updated to accept a inventory_catalog parameter, and the caplog fixture is used to capture log messages and assert that they contain the expected messages. Additionally, a new test function test_statement_execution_backend_overwrites_table has been added to the tests/integration/test_backends.py file to test the functionality of the StatementExecutionBackend class in overwriting a table in the database and retrieving the correct data. Issue #294 has been resolved, and progress has been made on issue #278, but issue #280 has been marked as technical debt and issue #287 is required for the CI to pass.

Dependency updates:

• Bump actions/checkout from 4.1.7 to 4.2.0 (#295).
