Changed

• CLI: The --stdin option (and -) no longer search for configuration files
  in the current working directory. Use the --path-for-config-search option to
  approximate the old behavior.
• Emacs: For scratch buffers, the Flycheck and Flymake plugins no longer
  search for configuration files.
• Vim: For unnamed buffers, the ALE plugin no longer searches for configuration
  files in the current working directory's parent and ancestors. Name the buffer
  using the :file command if you want a configuration file to take effect.
• VS Code: The plugin has been rewritten. Performance should be better, but
  stability and compatibility might suffer. For example, VS Code on Apple
  silicon (AArch64 CPUs) has not been tested and will likely no longer work.
  Please report compatibility issues.

Added

• Various new errors (implemented by Himanshu)
• CLI: --path-for-config-search allows customizing where configuration files
  are found for --stdin
• Global variables for several popular libraries are now recognized by default,
  including jQuery, Jasmine, and Jest
• Syntax and schema errors in quick-lint-js.config no longer crash
  quick-lint-js. Instead, these errors are highlighted similar to errors in
  JavaScript files.
• VS Code: quick-lint-js.config is now used when linting opened JavaScript
  files.

Fixed

• Building quick-lint-js with AddressSanitizer on Fedora no longer fails in
  collect-copyright
• Building quick-lint-js no longer fails if a directory called brew exists
  anywhere in $PATH
• Various crashes given invalid JavaScript no longer happen (implemented by
  wagner riffel and David Vasileff)
• for (const x of xs) no longer incorrectly reports E205 (missing
  initializer in const declaration) (fixed by Himanshu)
• Windows: quick-lint-js.config files are now recognized if the containing
  directory contains non-ASCII characters
• Fix SSE2 corruption on 32-bit Windows builds with MSVC.
