requirements: update craft-providers to v1.6.1
Metadata
Current evaluation
Merged PR #3969 (commit f378ec38b) bumped craft-providers to v1.6.1 in requirements, fixing Multipass errors writing outside the user's home dir and unblocking Snapcraft 7.2.0 testing.
Resolution: closed resolved
Reason: The PR was approved and merged to main as commit f378ec38b, updating the pinned craft-providers dependency to v1.6.1 after upstream canonical/craft-providers#168 landed. It resolved the Multipass home-directory write error reported in the Snapcraft 7.2.0 call-for-testing forum thread; later bumps (#3999, #4020) confirm the pin took effect.
