[tor-relays] relayor v25.0.0 is released

Hi,

relayor v25.0.0 is released.

relayor is an ansible role that helps you with running tor relays with minimal effort (automate everything).

Most notable changes:

* Support the MyFamily successor "happy families".
This new relayor feature is currently opt-in as it also requires an alpha release of tor.
When happy families reaches a tor stable release we will enable it by default
and make the opt-in setting obsolete.
I'm not so happy about the details but I also didn't want to introduce new dependencies
so relayor is copying the family key file for **every** tor instance - see the background here [1].
Happy families is especially useful for large operators running many tor instances.
The MyFamily configuration is not replaced by happy families, both designs are used when happy families is enabled.

* prometheus integration improvement (backward incompatible change): remove variable tor_prometheus_config_file.
relayor makes use of prometheus conf.d folder support instead of generating the entire configuration,
relayor only drops the scrape config files into a configurable folder where prometheus is expected to read them.
See prometheus' global config: scrape_config_files
  [1] tor can not read files accessible only to secondary groups (#41046) · Issues · The Tor Project / Core / Tor · GitLab

Changelog:

kind regards,
nusenu
