Note

Medium Risk
Touches core CLI request construction/parsing and output/paging paths, so regressions could affect many commands and file handling. Debug logging changes are security-adjacent (redaction), though covered by new unit tests.

Overview
Prepares the 0.8.0 release: bumps .release-please-manifest.json, updates CHANGELOG.md, refreshes .stats.yml, and tweaks docs/ignore rules (adds *.exe, updates README run instructions/examples, updates LICENSE year).

CLI behavior changes: adds a custom shell completion system (__complete/@completion) with new internal/autocomplete implementation and embedded scripts, and enables urfave/cli suggestions on command groups.

Request/flag plumbing overhaul: replaces the old requestflag types with a generic requestflag.Flag[T], adds --foo.barinner field flags (internal/requestflag/innerflag.go), and reworks request building to support empty bodies, octet-stream bodies, and file-as-parameter expansion via @file, @file://, and @data:// (plus stdin coordination when - is used).

Output/UX improvements: moves jsonview into internal, adds streaming exploration for iterators with incremental loading, introduces ShowJSONIterator with smarter pager decisions, and adds a new debug HTTP middleware that logs requests/responses while redacting Authorization (and other configurable sensitive headers).

API surface expansion & generated updates: adds new devices resource commands and updates/extends other generated commands (e.g., builds cancel handler wiring, ingresses create uses inner flags), along with new mock-test harness and many new unit tests.

CI/deps: updates GitHub Actions checkout to v6, adds a dedicated test job, and bumps dependencies (notably github.com/kernel/hypeman-go to v0.9.4, plus x/sys/x/term).
