 This patch release adds a GitHub Action to publish an LTS container image with the tag `1.2-lts` when a release is published from the ACA-Py 1.2.lts branch. This is a convenience for those who want to use the latest LTS version of ACA-Py in their deployments, and is not intended to be used as a replacement for the latest release of ACA-Py or when a specific release is required.
