OPNsense business edition 21.4 released

[franco]

The OPNsense business edition moves into a new era with this 21.4 release.
Note that the version numbers are now diverging from the community edition
to make it easier to distinguish between the two.  The next major update
will be 21.10 in October.

Download link is as follows.  An installation guide[1] and the checksums for
the images can be found below as well.
