OPA v1.14.0

[johanfylling]

This release contains a mix of new features, performance improvements, and bugfixes. Notably:

• Improved rule indexing of variable assignments and x in {...} expressions
• Support for --h2c with unix domain socket for opa run
• A new glossary tooltip for technical terms in the docs
• Fixes published in the v1.13.1 and v1.13.2 releases

Improved rule indexing of variable assignments and x in {...} expressions (#1841)

With this change, the rule indexer will index expressions like:

allow if input.role in {"admin", "user"}

On lookup, the rule body will only be returned if input.role is either one of "admin" or "user".

The reverse case is also indexed:

allow if "admin" in input.roles

in which the searched collection is unknown.
