This is the second unstable release for GNOME 42.
 * Allow --verbose to be enabled at runtime
 * Condense the rows in the age rating context dialog
 * Update the UI for ratings and reviews of apps
 * Improve the appearance of the category page loading screen
 * Drop the first run dialog
 * Improvements to dark theming
 * Support viewing a specific metainfo file using --show-metainfo
 * Several more threading improvements
 * Icon updates
 * Drop the hardcoded-popular plugin in favour of an appstream file
 * The background image for upgrades is now looked for using several well-known (and
   distribution-specific) names in ${DATADIR}/gnome-software/backgrounds, and the previous
   Fedora-specific default background image is no longer distributed. Similarly, the
   upgrade-background-uri GSettings key has been removed. Distributions may need to update how
   they ship background images. See doc/vendor-customisation.md.
