Milestone: 12.4 → 99-Waiting
Summary: biber-2.21 → biber-2.21 (wait until August perl module dependency updates)

This is going to need me to retest all of the perl modules against the new minor version of Perl. Let's wait on this until I update the perl modules during the first week of August.

2.21   (2025-07)
       * **INCOMPATIBLE CHANGE** - the 'collate-options' option no longer
         accepts a single string in perl hash notation as value. It now requires
         the option to be used once per collate option in a more standardised
         format, due to a code injection vulnerability. For example, instead of e.g:
         --collate-options="level => 4, variable => 'non-ignorable'", the format
         is: --collate-options level=4 --collate-options variable='non-ignorable'
       * Support for 32-bit Windows has been discontinued.
       * Improved Unicode support for Windows (thanks to John Collins)
       * Misc bug fixes
