v0.17.1

Highlights

Bicep team:

• Experimental support for user defined functions (#10465). (Requires the experimental feature flag "userDefinedFunctions" to enable).
• Added new CIDR network calculation functions (#10125). (We are working on official docs. For now, here's a link to function signatures and a sample: https://gist.github.com/majastrz/bdd776addfa72c0719334996c0aa78f5)
• Add support for Custom Kubernetes Resources (#10598)
• Add MaxAgeInDays config to use-recent-api-versions rule (#10344)

• Add new Bicep File Function: loadYamlContent (#10415)

@PalmEmanuel

• New parameter --force on Publish command (#9745)

Breaking changes

• Name resolution & scoping behavior for variables declared in lambdas & for loops is now consistent with variables declared at the global scope. This means that previously, the following would have been permitted, whereas now it is blocked:

  var foo = [for resourceGroup in []: {
    bar: resourceGroup('test')
  }]

  See #10657 for more detail.
