Preparation for v15.3.0

[jayaddison]

Here's what I've prepared so far as a commit message for an upcoming v15.3.0 release. Generally I tend to add all the pull request numbers when creating the corresponding release on GitHub (from the git tag.. and causing the GitHub Actions publish workflow to initiate).

In this case there are more items in the release note than usual, so it could take a while to annotate them with the pull request (especially because there's not a 1-1 mapping). Even so, I find it a useful process to do during a release - it helps as a reminder about what's included, and allows for some re-inspection of the details.

Edit: update added-support list Edit: update extended-field-support list (x2)

Contributors for this release are: @hhursev @jayaddison @jknndy @oahnh @ReneNulschDE @romainchassaigne ... am I omitting anyone?

I'd also like the following items to be merged before release:

• 1368

• #1373 (update: will not be included)
• #1320 (update: I suggest we defer this one)

• 1367

• 1370

• 1371

Edit: update credit list

[jayaddison]

• Tests: limit description text comparison length, to reduce risk of infringing copyright #1373

Update: we'll exclude this from the upcoming v15.3.0 release.

• Fix additional details extraction in ATK scraper #1320

I'm not yet certain about this one, given that we are not including #1373 - so I'm planning to defer it until a later time.

[jayaddison]

I'm still not sure about #1320, so I'm going to take some time to pause (for likely a week or two) before preparing this release. If anyone else would prefer to go ahead and manage/publish the release, that's of course fine.
