Highlights of the release

• Error when reading class file with unknown newer jdk version #18618
• Add support for xsbti.compile.CompileProgress #18739
• Add support for @deprecatedInheritance #19082
• Bump JLine 3.19.0 -> 3.24.1 & sbt 1.9.7 -> 1.9.9 #19744
• Repl - method signatures in autocomplete #19917
• Upgrade Scala 2 to 2.13.14 (was 2.13.12) #20902

Notable changes

• Backport of #20463 fixes and aligns generic signatures of value classes to match their behaviour with Scala 2. Before this change generic signatures containing parameters or result types defined as value classes have been using the signatures of value class field underlying type. This change can lead to MiMa failures if generic signature checks are enabled.
