[Tails-testers] [Tails-news] Tails 4.6 is out

This release fixes [many security
vulnerabilities](https://tails.boum.org/security/Numerous_security_holes_in_4.5/).
You should upgrade as soon as possible.

# Changes and updates

* Update _Tor Browser_ to [9.0.10](https://blog.torproject.org/new-release-tor-browser-9010).

* Add support for [Universal 2nd Factor](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Universal%202nd%20Factor) USB security keys.

* Update the list of applications in the _Favorites_ applications submenu.

To make it easier for new users to discover some of the core features of
Tails, we added _Configure persistent volume_, _Tails documentation_,
_WhisperBack Error Reporting_, and _Tails Installer_ and removed _Terminal_.


* Change the input method for Japanese from Anthy to Mozc. ([#16719](https://redmine.tails.boum.org/code/issues/16719))
