Please describe the bug

I wanted to let you know that the latest CDN URL for version 4.18.0 seems to give a 404 error: (https://cdn.botframework.com/botframework-webchat/4.18.0/webchat.js). The link for 4.17.0 does work (https://cdn.botframework.com/botframework-webchat/4.17.0/webchat.js).

Do you see any errors in console log?

Research direction

Start by checking the reported 4.18.0 CDN URL against the working 4.17.0 URL and inspect the repository's release or CDN publishing entry points. The issue is complete when https://cdn.botframework.com/botframework-webchat/4.18.0/webchat.js returns webchat.js instead of a 404.
