Provide the UAGSRV EXTENSION_PYTHON_LIST configuration option to extend the list of locations searched for Python instances that may be used by Universal Extension tasks.

Update the values supported via the requires_python declaration of a Universal Extension implementation as follows: 

• Support wildcards in the version specification (for example, “==2.7.*”). 
  
• Support an exclusive range of versions via the > and < operators (for example, “> 2.6, < 4”).
• Support an inclusive range of versions via the >= and <= operator (for example, “> 3.7.6”). 

Allow usermode installs to discover the Python distribution provided by a system mode-installed Agent. 

Provide the ability for Universal Extensions to detect and respond to Cancel commands issued from Universal Controller. 

Allow Universal Extension tasks to accept authentication tokens (e.g., used for Web or cloud-based service authentication) from a Universal Controller resolvable credential object. 

Refactor the Universal Extension logging API so that it is no longer necessary to instantiate an ExtensionLogger object. Logging methods can now be accessed using the following import: 

 from universal_extension import logger 

 Logging methods can be invoked using calls like logger.info(‘msg’) or logger.error(‘msg’). 

Add the ability to execute Dynamic Commands within a Universal Extension task without launching a separate process (i.e., support “in-process” Dynamic Command execution). 

Provide a new utility to assist with Universal Extension development that provides a command line interface to Universal Extension task APIs offered by Universal Controller. Please see the Universal Extension development documentation for information on this new “uip” utility.

Create a VisualStudio Code plugin to interact with the new uip command line utility delivered by B-13991.  by Universal Controller. 

Please see the Universal Extension development documentation for information on this new “uip” utility.

Extend the uip utility delivered by B-13989 with an init command that can be used to initialize a working directory (e.g., a local Git repository) for Universal Extension development.

Fixes a problem that causes a requires_python value with a wildcard to be ignored when used with operator other than == or != Extend the uip utility delivered by B-13989 with an init command that can be used to initialize a working directory (e.g., requires_python >= 3.*)a local Git repository) for Universal Extension development.
