• Remove /opt/check_netscaler/check_netscaler.py references

• Update CONTRIBUTING.md: v2-python-rewrite -> master branch

• Update installation instructions in Nagios README

• Simplify command examples to use PATH binary (fadea87)

• docs: update installation instructions for v2.0 release (c496858)

Fix

• fix(perfdata): use -n for field names to match Perl v1 behavior

Changes:

• Use -n/--objectname parameter for comma-separated field names
• Remove object filtering capability (not present in Perl v1)
• Query all objects of specified type and collect fields from each
• Update CLI help text to clarify dual use of -n parameter
• Update documentation with correct usage examples
• Update all tests to use objectname for field names

This restores compatibility with Perl v1 where: check_netscaler.pl -H host -s -C perfdata -o aaa -n field1,field2

Now works the same way in Python v2: check_netscaler -C perfdata -o aaa -n field1,field2

v2.1.0 (2025-12-08)

Feature

• feat: Add Icinga2-compatible status tags to multiline output

Add [OK], [WARNING], and [CRITICAL] status tags to long_output in state, servicegroup, and sslcert commands. These tags enable automatic color-coding in Icinga Web 2 for improved visibility of issues.

Changes:

• state: Add status tags to each object's state line
• servicegroup: Add status tags to member health details
• sslcert: Add status tags to certificate expiration warnings

This implements the feature requested in issue #28 for better multiline output formatting in Icinga Web 2.
