[Release] Release v0.279.0

## Release v0.279.0

### Notable Changes
* New deployment engine for DABs that does not require Terraform is available to try in experimental mode. Not recommended for production workloads yet. Documentation at [docs/direct.md](docs/direct.md).

### CLI
* Introduce `databricks apps logs` command to tail app logs from the CLI ([#3908](#3908))

### Bundles
* Add support for alerts to DABs ([#4004](#4004))
* Allow `file://` URIs in job libraries to reference runtime filesystem paths (e.g., JARs pre-installed on clusters via init scripts). These paths are no longer treated as local files to upload. ([#3884](#3884))
* Pipeline catalog changes now trigger in-place updates instead of recreation (Terraform provider v1.98.0 behavior change) ([#4082](#4082))

### Dependency updates
* Bump Terraform provider to v1.98.0 ([#4082](#4082))
