chore: Dev to Main merge

[Shreyas-Microsoft]

Purpose

This pull request introduces several improvements and updates across CI workflows, infrastructure configuration, and dependency management. The main highlights include the addition of a new workflow for Bicep parameter validation, enhancements to existing GitHub Actions for more robust environment handling, updates to required tool versions, and dependency upgrades for both Python and Node.js projects.

CI Workflow Enhancements:

• Added a new .github/workflows/validate-bicep-params.yml workflow to validate Bicep parameter files on a schedule and on pull requests, including automated notifications for failures or successes.
• Improved environment handling in .github/workflows/azd-template-validation.yml and .github/workflows/azure-dev.yml by dynamically generating AZURE_ENV_NAME with a timestamp to ensure unique environment names for each run. [1] [2] [3]

Dependency and Tooling Updates:

• Updated Python dependencies in src/backend-api/pyproject.toml and src/processor/pyproject.toml, including upgrades to azure-core, urllib3, black, cryptography, pyjwt, pyopenssl, and pinning authlib to a specific version. Also upgraded fastmcp to 3.2.0 in the processor. [1] [2] [3]
• Upgraded the picomatch Node.js package to 4.0.4 and added it explicitly to src/frontend/package.json and package-lock.json to address compatibility and engine requirements. [1] [2] [3]

Infrastructure and Configuration Changes:

• Added a required version for bicep (>= 0.33.0) in azure.yaml to ensure compatibility with infrastructure deployments.
• Removed the secondaryLocation parameter from infra/main.parameters.json and infra/main.waf.parameters.json to simplify configuration. [1] [2]
