Release/1275.0.0

[OGPoyraz]

Explanation

Release 1275.0.0 with a major version bump for @metamask/transaction-controller and a minor version bump for @metamask/transaction-pay-controller.

• @metamask/transaction-controller 70.1.0 → 71.0.0 (major)
• @metamask/transaction-pay-controller 29.0.2 → 29.1.0 (minor)

@metamask/transaction-controller@71.0.0

Breaking: Move sponsorship and signing decisions to optional approval-time isSponsored and shouldSign hooks (#10109)

• The hooks default to non-sponsored and local signing when omitted. Sponsored transactions skip the shouldSign hook and local signing, while transactions that skip local signing retain an existing nonce and require a publish hook.
• isGasFeeSponsored and isExternalSign remain in the public types as deprecated compatibility properties but no longer control the transaction lifecycle; isGasFeeSponsored remains available as migration metadata.
• Add TransactionMeta.isGasFeeSponsoredAvailable and refresh it during approval preparation when simulation is enabled so sponsorship hooks receive current availability without overriding simulation preferences.

Other changes:

• Add membershipSubscription transaction type (#10340)
• Bump bn.js from ^5.2.1 to ^5.2.5 (#10362)

@metamask/transaction-pay-controller@29.1.0

• Support subsidized max Relay deposits using atomic EXACT_OUTPUT quotes with transaction calls embedded, gated by payStrategies.relay.atomicMaxEnabled (#10224)
• Bump bn.js from ^5.2.1 to ^5.2.5 (#10362)
• Bump immer from ^9.0.6 to ^9.0.21 (#10331)

Note

High Risk
The major transaction-controller release changes core transaction approval, sponsorship, and signing behavior across many downstream packages that depend on it.

Overview
Release 1275.0.0 cuts published versions for @metamask/transaction-controller 71.0.0 (major) and @metamask/transaction-pay-controller 29.1.0 (minor), and bumps the monorepo root version accordingly.

The transaction-controller release documents breaking approval-time behavior: sponsorship and signing now flow through optional isSponsored / shouldSign hooks instead of isGasFeeSponsored / isExternalSign, plus a new membershipSubscription transaction type. This PR mostly propagates that major by setting dependent packages’ @metamask/transaction-controller ranges to ^71.0.0, updating yarn.lock, and recording bump entries in package changelogs (including transaction-pay’s dependency bump under 29.1.0).
