WMCore 1.4.5 services and WMAgent production release
This release is built on top of the SLC7 OpenSSL library, thus no longer shipping our own CMS COMP OpenSSL package. The cx-Oracle library went through an upgrade from version 5.2.1 to 7.3.0 as well.
In addition to that, it comes with many python3 modernization changes.
Changes since release: 1.4.4.
Release date: 12 Jan 2021.
