Thanks everybody who helped with this release by sending patches,
reviewing, testing, or providing feedback. Your work is greatly
appreciated.

* New features

  * Introduce pipewire audio backend

    The QEMU hypervisor driver now allows setting ``pipewire`` backend for
    ``<audio/>`` device.

* Improvements

  * Adapt to qemu's use of protocol drivers in QCOW2 'backing file format' field

    QEMU allows creating images where the 'backing file format' is actually a
    protocol name such as 'file'/'host_device'/'nbd'/etc.. Adapt libvirt to
    properly handle such images and don't assume automatic format probing is
    necessary, which is in many cases forbidden due to security implications.

* Bug fixes

  * qemu: Fix setup of images on hotplug of disk

    Internal image metadata was not setup correctly which could cause some disk
    hotplug configurations (namely those including backing images) to fail.

  * qemu: Fix qemu crash when reverting an internal snapshot

    Libvirt attempted to start qemu with wrong arguments when attempting to
    revert to an internal snapshot causing qemu to crash.

  * qemu: Fix hotplug of empty cdrom

    Empty cdrom drive couldn't be hotplugged as libvirt wanted to setup the
    storage backing it unconditionally.

Enjoy.
