flytekit

1. Continued changes to the FlyteRemote interface, including:
   • remote.sync now operates on the object in-place.
   • A sync_nodes argument has been added to the remote.sync call - by default it's True but set it to False if you want to only render inputs/outputs at the top level (rather than at every node within the execution).
   • The sync call on FlyteWorkflowExecution objects was removed (it was already deprecated and a noop but if you were calling it, you'll need to remove it.)
   • gRPC credentials to FlyteRemote
2. Improved typing errors when scanning user code. Added better type inference to some of the transformers.
3. Plugin tests have been moved into each individual plugin's test folder.
4. Snowflake task has been added
