Breaking change

Previously we were using two versions of UI, which were hard to maintain as we need to implement/update the same feature
in both versions. With this release we have removed the older UI in favor of Flask App Builder RBAC UI. No need to set the
RBAC UI explicitly in the configuration now as this is the only default UI. We did it to avoid
the huge maintenance burden of two independent user interfaces
Previously we were using two versions of the UI:
- non-RBAC UI
- Flask App Builder RBAC UI

This was difficult to maintain, because it meant we
had to implement/update features in two places. With this release, we have removed the older UI in
favor of the Flask App Builder RBAC UI, reducing a huge maintenance burden.
There is no longer a need to set the RBAC UI explicitly in the configuration,
as it is the only default UI.

If you previously used non-RBAC UI, you have to switch to the new RBAC-UI and create users to be able
to access Airflow's webserver. For more details on CLI to create users see :doc:`cli-and-env-variables-ref`

Please note that that custom auth backends will need re-writing to target new FAB based UI.
