Some of the changes around option autoloading are nice. New functions get_options(), wp_prime_option_caches(), and wp_set_option_autoload_values() allow an enhanced performance of retrieving options from the database. This would help unblock #13701.
Post meta revisions are also useful. In the Story_Post_Type class we can use the wp_post_revision_meta_keys filter to ensure POSTER_META_KEY and PUBLISHER_LOGO_META_KEY are part of revisions too. Might require some testing. Ditto for the Product_Meta class
Nothing else stands out at the moment.
Tasks include:
[x] Bump in readme.txt
[x] Bump in web-stories.php (twice)
[x] Update minimum_supported_wp_version in phpcs.xml.dist
[x] Run e2e tests against 6.4 and newer
[x] Run unit tests against 6.4 and newer
[ ] Re-evaluate PHPUnit matrix and composer dependencies if necessary
Analytics numbers look good, so by the time we release our new version, only very few people will be on older versions.
