I've been doing a middle-large upgrade today, alongside some other more focused tests, and everything seems to have worked fine. Let's mark this as verified.

This is a far saner amount of changes than in 1.3.5, because we don't have the installation ordering changes as the new installation ordering was introduced in 1.3.

The rest is checked in the CI, so we should just do some updates upgrades and check that everything works. [Regression Potential] In #1668280, about 80% of the code changes are covered by test cases. This leaves out most code changes that are not covered, so code coverage should be higher, reducing the regression potential enormously.
