Describe the problem

While reviewing the changelog for the upgrade, I noticed that the --admin-url option was marked as removed/deprecated, but it also seems to have been reintroduced with the multi-profiles feature. What is the actual status of this option?

Thanks.

To Reproduce

# netbird up -h |grep admin
      --admin-url string        Admin Panel URL [http|https]://[host]:[port] (default "https://app.netbird.io:443")

Expected behavior

"(DEPRECATED) Admin Panel URL [http|https]://[host]:[port] (default \"%s\") - This flag is no longer functional"

Are you using NetBird Cloud?

No

NetBird version

0.57.0

Is any other VPN software installed?

No

Thanks for the report.

I'll confirm with the team, but this might be something that was missed when handling a long-running branch with the profiles before merging it.
