Thanks for all the work. Some notes:

1. There's currently no mention that protocol version 3.2 was
introduced in this release. I'm not sure where/how this should be
mentioned, but I definitely think it should be somewhere. It's a
pretty major change. One option is to replace/amend the "Make cancel
request keys 256 bits" item. Maybe replace that with something like:
"Postgres 18 introduces protocol version 3.2. This is the first new
protocol version since 3.0, which was introduced in Postgres 7.4. This
new protocol version 3.2 allows a server to use longer cancel request
keys. When the client advertises support for protocol version 3.2 (or
higher) Postgres 18 will use a cancel key size of 256 bits."
2. Obviously biased since it's my contribution, but I think d38bab5
might deserve a mention.
3. The "Add PQtrace() output..." commitlist should also contain 7adec2d5fc
