Openmsistream

This release polishes the DockerHub upload action and adds some documentation about the DockerHub image

This release adds an official openmsistream Docker image to the repository. It's mostly to test a new GitHub action that should build and publish that image when releases are published.

This is the final version for our submission to JOSS

This release adds some new functionality requested during JOSS review.

It fixes some problems with tests that occurred because of an updated version of pylint, and improves the behavior of running CI tests locally and interactively with the "--no_kafka" flag (this improvement is also now checked in the CI/CD pipeline). It also adds some scripts for standing up a local broker to use in tests through Docker, and allows that local broker to be created and removed automatically with the "--local_broker" flag to the "run_all_tests.py" script. The documentation has been updated to reflect that new functionality, and the local broker is also included as an option in the documentation for the tutorials.

This release includes updates for adding a tutorial section to the documentation, with additional CI tests, and some structural re-organization. It also fixes a compatibility issue with Python 3.7.

The version removes an unnecessary check in some CI tests that would complain if some output directories already existed. This might be the case if tests were previously run on the systems and failed, and so previously-failed runs would cause subsequent runs to fail until their output had been manually removed, but this isn't convenient for anyone and so now any old output will just be automatically removed when each new test run starts.
