+
+Added new UrlReader interface for reading opaque data from URLs with different providers.
+
+This new URL reading system is intended as a replacement for the various integrations towards
+external systems in the catalog, scaffolder, and techdocs. It is configured via a new top-level
+config section called 'integrations'.
+
+Along with the UrlReader interface is a new UrlReaders class, which exposes static factory
+methods for instantiating readers that can read from many different integrations simultaneously.
