# Description
Deprecates logic duplicated in `neon-utils` for managing pip
installation with constraints
Includes update to Docker default configuration to prevent logged errors
in default container load

# Issues
- Needs NeonGeckoCom/neon-utils#556

# Other Notes
- Deployed as `ghcr.io/neongeckocom/neon_skills-default_skills:alpha`
Docker image for testing (9/3)
- This change means that an invalid `default_skills` configuration value
will cause no skills to be installed, rather than just the one skill to
not be installed
- Previously, URLs that weren't git repositories were treated as
invalid, but this removes that check which allows for specifying a wheel
URL
