v1.36.0

This is the 1.36.0 release of Agones.

In this release:

• We've added support for Kubernetes 1.28 and have discontinued support for 1.25 to bring the support matrix to 1.26, 1.27 and 1.28 . Please upgrade your clusters accordingly.
• We’ve resolved path issues in the Unreal Engine Plugin to ensure compatibility with Unreal Engine 5.3.
• We are now using Go 1.20.10 and gRPC 1.57.1, which includes a number of performance improvements and important security fixes.
• GameServers that end up in Error state now have a delay before deletion, allowing developers a chance to see why they have failed, and prevent GameServer churn from overwhelming the Kubernetes control plane.
• We've upgraded to the latest v0.7.1 Docsy- let us know if you see anything broken in the docs!
