* A mechanism to add user-defined rewrite rules to Coq's reduction
mechanisms; see chapter "User-defined rewrite rules".
* Support for primitive strings in terms.
* Reduction of the bytecode segment size, which in turn means
that `.vo` files might now be considerably smaller.
- Notable breaking changes:
* Syntactic global references passed through the `using` clauses
of `auto`-like tactics are now handled as plain references
rather than interpreted terms. In particular, their typeclass
arguments will not be inferred. In general, the previous
behaviour can be emulated by replacing `auto using foo` with
`pose proof foo; auto`.
* Argument order for the Ltac2 combinators `List.fold_left2` and
`List.fold_right2` changed to be the same as in OCaml.
* Importing a module containing a mutable Ltac2 definition does
not undo its mutations. Replace `Ltac2 mutable foo :=
some_expr.` with `Ltac2 mutable foo := some_expr. Ltac2 Set foo
:= some_expr.` to recover the previous behaviour.
* Some renaming in the standard library. Deprecations are
provided for a smooth transition.
