same address
- Performance improvements for read-heavy uses cases involving message
properties
- Environment variable substitution is now supported in bootstrap.xml
- New management operation to dump the broker’s config as a properties file
- The global max size can now be set as a percentage of the JVM’s max
memory via global-max-size-percent-of-jvm-max-memory

- Lots of updates to the code-base for style consistency & clarity plus
adoption of many Java 17 features and APIs

As usual it contains a handful of bug fixes and other improvements.

Many thanks to all those who contributed to this release!
