Policy Changes:
* BuiltInFunctions::ProhibitLvalueSubstr does not report violations
if the document contains an explicit 'use n.nnn;' where the
version is before 5.005. RT #59112
* Documentation::RequirePodSections no longer blows up on code
having POD but no =head1. This problem was introduced with RT
#59268. RT #67231
* RegularExpressions::ProhibitUnusedCapture should more reliably
find things like s/(a)/${1}2/. RT #67273.
* ValuesAndExpressions::ProhibitMagicNumbers and
Module::RequireVersionVar now treat versions passed as the second
argument of a 'package' statement the same as versions declared as
'our $VERSION ...'. RT #67159
* Variables::RequireLexicalLoopIterators does not report violations
if the document contains an explicit 'use n.nnn;' where the
version is before 5.004. RT #67760

Policy Changes:
* Documentation::RequirePodLinksIncludeText now handles nested POD
formatting. RT #65569
* Clarified relation of severity numbers to names in Perl::Critic
POD. RT #66017
* Removed caveats from Variables::RequireLocalizedPunctuationVars,
no longer necessary with PPI 1.208. RT #65514
* Have InputOutput::RequireBriefOpen attempt to expand scope as
necessary to deal with the case where the open() and the
corresponding close() are not in the same scope. RT #64437
* RegularExpressions::ProhibitUnusedCapture now looks inside
double-quotish things. RT #38942.
* RegularExpressions::ProhibitUnusedCapture now takes logical
alternation into account, so that (e.g.)
if ( /(a)/ || /(b)/ ) {
say $1;
}
is not a violation. RT #38942.
* ValuesAndExpressions::ProhibitCommaSeparatedStatements now
recognizes 'return { foo => 1, bar => 2 }' as containing a hash
constructor, not a block. This was fixed by PPI 1.215. RT #61301.
* ValuesAndExpressions::ProhibitCommaSeparatedStatements now
recognizes 'bless { foo => 1, bar => 2 }' as containing a hash
constructor, not a block. This was fixed by PPI 1.215. RT #64132.
