*** You may need to update =org-protocol= bookmarklets for browsers

In Firefox 133 and Firefox 128.5 ESR, the previously suggested
JavaScript bookmarklets replace the current page with the bookmarklet URL
text.  We have updated the manual with new bookmarklets that do not
have this problem.

The new bookmarklets have ~void(0);~ appended at the end, so that they
do not return anything.

Example:

#+begin_example
javascript:location.href='org-protocol://store-link?url='+
      encodeURIComponent(location.href);void(0);
#+end_example

*** =C-c C-x C-v= command toggling inline image display has been reworked

Previously, =C-c C-x C-v= always toggled image display in the whole
buffer (or narrowed part of the buffer).  With prefix argument, it
also forced displaying image links with description.

Now, =C-c C-x C-v= is bound to a new command ~org-link-preview~, which
uses different defaults:

1. When the region is active, images in the region are previewed

2. Otherwise, if there is an image at point, it is toggled.  If there
   is no image at point, images in the current entry are previewed

3. With the =C-u= argument, image previews in the active region or at
   point are cleared instead

4. The =C-u C-u= argument unconditionally shows all images in the
   accessible portion of the buffer

5. The =C-u C-u C-u= argument unconditionally clears all images in the
   accessible portion of the buffer

6. Displaying images over links with description can be forced using
   numeric argument:
   - ~C-u 1~ for toggling all images at point/current entry
   - ~C-u 11~ for toggling all images in buffer

(The first five of these prefix argument behaviors are the same as that of
the ~org-latex-preview~ command.)

In addition to images, ~org-link-preview~ can also be used to preview
Org links of all types for which preview behavior is defined, see
[[#link-preview][previews for arbitrary link types]].

The old ~org-toggle-inline-images~ command is obsolete but still
available.  You can bind it back to =C-c C-x C-v= by adding the
following to your config:
#+begin_src emacs-lisp
(eval-after-load 'org-keys
  (org-defkey org-mode-map (kbd "C-c C-x C-v") #'org-toggle-inline-images))
#+end_src

*** Org mode no longer treats =:results drawer= as verbatim output

Previously, =:results drawer= left the code block results verbatim in
some scenarios.  This is no longer the case, in line with the manual
