v2025.12

This release includes improvements for bootc integration, CI modernization, and overall stability. It adds support for signed Composefs during layering, enhances rootless operations, and updates CI to CentOS Stream 10. Several fixes and documentation updates are also included. One major bugfix comes from updating libdnf in #5498, which resolves #5494 where rpm-ostree would fail to add subkeys when installing a package.
