Full Changelog: 1.26.0...1.27.0

MSAL Python 1.27.0b2

This beta release is a preview for the broker-on-Mac support. You can install it by pip install msal==1.27.0b2. Please refer to this staged API Reference Doc for how to opt into this new feature.

_{(Note to MSAL maintenance team: The tag was accidentally named "...b1", while the actual version number was "...b2". This is not a problem when we eventually do it right when shipping the stable "1.27.0" in the future.)}

• Deprecation: allow_broker will be replaced by enable_broker_on_windows (#613)
• Bugfix: Device Code Flow (and Username Password Flow) and its subsequent silent request will automatically bypass broker and succeed. (#569)
• Enhancement: acquire_token_interactive() supports running inside Docker
• Observability: Successful token response will contain a new token_source field to indicate where the token was obtained from: identity_provider, cache or broker. (#610)
