Dify 1.17.1 requires staged upgrade for Weaviate deployments

Dify has released version 1.17.1, which requires a manual, staged upgrade for self-hosted deployments that use the bundled Weaviate server. This is because the Weaviate server is being updated from version 1.27.0 to 1.39.2, and skipping minor version updates is not supported. Failing to perform the staged upgrade could lead to permanent breakage of vector data. AI

IMPACT Requires careful upgrade procedures for users of Dify with bundled Weaviate, potentially impacting data integrity if not followed.
