Removal of Chef Automate Workflow services and upgrade Journey from 4.13.0

The Automate Workflow product has been EOL since 2020, and maintaining the code in the repository requires CVE fixes and updating the dependencies with the latest packages. The Automate Workflow services use Habitat's core/curl package as a dependency. Since we are upgrading the core/curl package, we must follow the same standards we do for other components in terms of building and testing the Automate Workflow components. Since Workflow is an EOL component and leads to CVEs related to various packages, we want to remove the Automate Workflow related components from the Automate code. The customers upgrade journey to Automate 4.13.x may be affected if they have the Workflow services active in their Automate configuration. This article covers the related scenarios and the resolution steps the customer must follow to fix the issue and upgrade to the latest Automate version.
