+release 68.0.0
  - Use st::api::lims->aggregate_libraries() method for both 'merge_lanes' and
   'merge_by_library' pipeline options. This is a breaking change as far as
   archival and deletion of NovaSeq Standard workflow data is concerned.

   different to the more general merging across lanes where the (claimed) same
   library has been sequenced. But this is not a valid reason to maintain separate
   code.
+ - Deletable shadow folders are detected, but not considered as deletable
+   for now. They are flagged in the log of the 'npg_run_is_deletable' script.
+ - Removed all code that was used for the UKB project and the upload of Heron
+   project data to CLIMB. Updated the archival pipeline function graph and its
+   graphical representation.
+    - Removed 'cache_merge_component' and 'archive_to_s3' pipeline functions.
+    - Removed all functions for retrieving the QC state of the product
+      from 'npg_pipeline::product'.
+    - Dropped npg_pipeline::base dependency on QC database ('qc_schema'
+      attribute for 'npg_qc::Schema'). Removed test fixtures for the QC database.
+    - Deleted 'npg_receipt4run_is_deletable' script.
+    - Dropped checks for files upload to the third-party cloud locations when
+      deciding whether the run folder is deletable.
+    - Updated examples in POD in 'npg_pipeline::product::release'.
+    - Excluded redundant settings from 'product_release.yml' files used in
+      unit tests.
