* Specifying a path in `JULIA_DEPOT_PATH` now results in the expansion of empty strings to
omit the default user depot ([#51448]).
* Precompilation cache files are now relocatable and their validity is now verified through
a content hash of their source files instead of their `mtime` ([#49866]).

* `copyuntil(out, io, delim)` and `copyline(out, io)` copy data into an `out::IO` stream ([#48273]).
* `eachrsplit(string, pattern)` iterates split substrings right to left ([#51646]).
* `Sys.username()` can be used to return the current user's username ([#51897]).
* `Sys.isreadable(), Sys.iswritable()` can be used to check if the current user has access permissions
that permit reading and writing, respectively. ([#53320]).
* `wrap(Array, m::Union{MemoryRef{T}, Memory{T}}, dims)` is the safe counterpart to `unsafe_wrap` ([#52049]).
* `GC.logging_enabled()` can be used to test whether GC logging has been enabled via `GC.enable_logging` ([#51647]).
* `IdSet` is now exported from Base and considered public ([#53262]).

* `filter` can now act on a `NamedTuple` ([#50795]).
* `Iterators.cycle(iter, n)` runs over `iter` a fixed number of times, instead of forever ([#47354]).
* `zero(::AbstractArray)` now applies recursively, so `zero([[1,2],[3,4,5]])` now produces the additive identity `[[0,0],[0,0,0]]` rather than erroring ([#38064]).
* `include_dependency(path; track_content=true)` allows switching from using `mtime`
to hashing of the precompilation dependency in order to restore relocatability of precompilation caches ([#51798]).
