v0.6.0

What's Changed

This release updates all dependencies to their latest release versions, including libbpf-rs and ratatui. We've also added a couple of UX improvements.

New Features

Scrollbar for tabular view

Thanks to @m12t, the tabular view now displays a scrollbar when the list of BPF programs exceeds the terminal window height. This enhancement makes it clear that additional programs exist beyond those currently visible.

New CLI Options

bpftop now supports the --help and --version flags. Previously, it wasn't possible to check the version information.
