v0.6.0-rc.3

If no issues arise, this will be the final release candidate for 0.6.0.

Warning

This release bumps the supported MongoDB version all the way from v3 to v8. Whilst older MongoDB versions should still continue to work, version 8 will now be tested and used in the docker builds, so we recommend you upgrade. For existing databases this requires you to first dump the database using mongodump with the old MongoDB version, then upgrade to the new version and restore the database with mongorestore. If you unsure about this process then please ask us for help!
