release: 159.0.0

[Mrtenz]

This is the release candidate for version 159.0.0.

Note

Medium Risk
Major bump in snaps-rpc-methods changes how entropy is accessed via the keyring; integrators must upgrade and verify entropy-related Snap RPC flows, though this PR itself only changes versions and changelogs.

Overview
Release 159.0.0 bumps the monorepo from 158.0.0 and cuts new versions for several published packages, with changelog entries only—no application source changes in this diff.

@metamask/snaps-rpc-methods 17.0.0 (major) documents a breaking switch to withKeyringV2Unsafe for entropy access (#4009) and a patch bump on @metamask/permission-controller. @metamask/snaps-simulation 4.2.0 aligns with that entropy path and depends on rpc-methods 17. @metamask/snaps-controllers 20.0.6 and @metamask/snaps-jest 10.1.4 are patch releases that pull in the updated rpc-methods (and related) dependencies (#4020, #4002).

Consumers upgrading should treat snaps-rpc-methods 17 as semver-major because of the keyring/entropy API change; other bumps are dependency alignment for the release train.

Can we release snaps-simulation/snaps-jest with these changes too?
