- Bumped QUIC Go to v0.54.0 and updated multiple dependencies (golangci, Cloudflare circl), plus code refactors using maps.Copy, slices.Contains, slices.Equal, and CutPrefix for cleaner handling.
- Added new capabilities: .avif image format support, bcrypt cost parameter for password hashing, placeholder handling in header replacements, TLS DNS challenge validation, and stdin support for the adapt command.
- Fixed numerous bugs and stability issues, including crash fixes, nil argument removal, route sorting fixes, policy parsing bugs, external certificate manager regression, and improved keep‑alive and listener cleanup logic.
