Compatibility Notes
-------------------
- [Many unsafe precondition checks now run for user code with debug assertions enabled](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/120594/)
This change helps users catch undefined behavior in their code, though the details of how much is checked are generally not stable.
- [riscv only supports split_debuginfo=off for now](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/120518/)
- [Consistently check bounds on hidden types of `impl Trait`](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/121679)
- [Change equality of higher ranked types to not rely on subtyping](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/118247)
- [When called, additionally check bounds on normalized function return type](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/118882)
- [Expand coverage for `arithmetic_overflow` lint](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/119432/)
