[ale] No more CentOS as an LTS release

[Stephen R. Blevins]

For those insisting on "Centos,"  CloudLinux
(https://www.cloudlinux.com) is claiming to try to pickup support for
the community, with a release some time during the First Quarter 2021
(No exact dates given).

Nice to hear that Red Hat is "free" for some level of use.
