General Improvements and Bug Fixes

Bug fixes that require changes on the connector host are always bundled into LTS minor (point) releases. This is the case for all bug fixes included in LTS11.

• Removed references to a logging library that is in the process of being deprecated.
• Connector Host failing to report its version to the cloud. This was also backported to LTS10.1 version of OPCH.
• Resolved a situation that can lead to the status badge for a data source to not align with the connector status. This was also backported to LTS10.2 version of OPCH.
