Release notes

This release doesn't change runtime behavior or public APIs. It matters mainly to downstream packagers who test each optional feature of the crates separately.
Fixed
- (lib) The test suites now pass when an optional feature is enabled on its own (#1513, @jdx). Four configurations used to fail even though the all-features tests passed: usage-argv with only complete, only diagnostics or only spec, and usage-rs with only test. CI now tests each of these separately. This brings in the two test patches from Debian's packaging (debcargo-conf MR !1447), which packagers can drop starting with this release.

💚 Sponsor usage
usage is built and maintained by @jdx, an open source developer at entire.io, the title sponsor of his open source work.
If usage powers CLI specs, docs, or completions for a tool you maintain or use, please consider becoming an individual or company sponsor. Your support funds ongoing development and helps keep usage fast, free, and independent.
