* The contents of ``FetchError`` log entries have been improved to
give better human-readable diagnostics for certain classes of
backend fetch failures.
* ``Debug`` log entries may also give more diagnostic information
about backend fetch failures and session accept failures (failure
to accept a client connection).
* When a backend is unhealthy, ``Backend_health`` now reports some
diagnostic information in addition to the HTTP response and timing

A JSON response in the CLI always includes a timestamp (epoch time in
seconds with millisecond precision).
* The ``backend.list`` command now lists both directors and
backends, with their health status. The command now has a ``-v``
option for verbose output, in which detailed health states for
each backend/director are displayed.

* We have fixed a bug that had limited the precision available for
the ``INT`` data type, so you now get the full 64 bits.
* Portions of what had previously been declared in
``cache_director.h`` have been moved into ``vrt.h``, constituting
the public API for directors. The remainder in
``cache_director.h`` is not public, and should not be used by a
VMOD intended for VRT ABI compatibility.
* Python 3 is now preferred in builds, and will likely be required
in future versions.
