	- implement a fix for CVE-2022-4170 (reported and analyzed by David Leadbeater).
          While present in version 9.30, it should not be exploitable. It is exploitable
          in versions 9.25 and 9.26, at least, and allows anybody controlling output to
          the terminal to execute arbitrary code in the urxvt process.
	- the background extension no longer requires off focus fading support
          to be compiled in.
        - the confirm-paste extension now offers a choice betwene pasting the original
          or a sanitized version, and also frees up memory used to store the paste text
          immediately.
        - fix compiling without frills.
        - fix rewrapMode: never.
        - fix regression that caused urxvt to no longer emit responses
          to OSC color queries other than OSC 4 ones.
        - fix regression that caused urxvt to no longer process OSC 705.
        - restore CENTURY to be 1900 to "improve" year parsing in urclock (or at
          least go back to the old interpretation) (based on an analysis
          by Tommy Pettersson).
        - exec_async (used e.g. by the matcher extension to spawn processes) now
          sets the URXVT_EXT_WINDOWID variable to the window id of the terminal.
        - implement -fps option/refreshRate resource to change the default 60 Hz
          maximum refresh limiter. I always wanted an fps option, but had to
          wait for a user requesting it.
        - new clickthrough extension.
        - perl now also requires Xext.
        - X region and shape extension functionality has been exposed to perl
          extensions.
        - RENDER extension no longer depends on ENABLE_XIM_ONTHESPOT.
