* deduplicate storage requests when loading views. (apache#3488)

* dedup metadata fetch by reusing ops

* Update Gradle to 9.3.0 (apache#3514)

* Site: add tool to mark versioned-docs as "do not index" (apache#3485)

Adds a shell script to add the front-matter tags `robots: noindex` (HTML META tag) and `exclude_search: true` (local site search) for versioned docs for a specific version.

The rudimentary script handles only markdown files, not asciidoc files, because there are currently only .md files in the versioned-docs.

* feat(metrics): Evolve PolarisMetricsReporter interface with timestamp parameter and comprehensive documentation (apache#3468)

Enhance the `PolarisMetricsReporter` SPI interface by adding a timestamp parameter to the `reportMetric()` method, enabling accurate time-series metrics reporting to external systems.

* Make python version configuration in Makefile (apache#3510)

* Update max supported python version (apache#3509)

* (doc) Add doc for couple new feature flags introduced recently (apache#3511)

* Update doc to use /Users/richardliu rather than quoted tilde (apache#3472)

* Remove KMS policies when KMS is not configured and improved default KMS permission for RO/RW (apache#3493)

* Update triggers in "Hugo Site" workflow (apache#3518)

The `site.yml` workflow is currently triggered in the following scenarios:
1. A push to the `main` branch, using the state of the site and the workflow as on `main`.
2. A push to a `release/*`branch, using the state of the site and the workflow as on that release branch.

Notice that workflows get the repo state (from the checkout actions) and the workflow state as its on that particular branch.
Put in other words: if we'd have a change to some old `release/1.0.x` branch, the web site would be updated as it is defined on that `release/1.0.x` branch, which is wrong and not the intended behavior.

This change updates the workflow triggers to only run for pushes to the `main` branch, plus PRs against the `main` branch and when called from another workflow.

This is part of apache#3516

* Let `site/bin/checkout-releases.sh` pull the latest state (apache#3517)

The script `site/bin/checkout-releases.sh` is a convenience to get the `versioned-docs` branch locally. It is missing a `git pull` to get the latest state of that branch though, which can be confusing.
