Yay =E2=80=94 building on JDK 26! =F0=9F=8E=89

To contribute at least some testing, last week I migrated a web/app pet =
project with quite a bit of traffic ( https://www.neytandinn.is/ ) from =
5.0-M1 to the current 5.0-SNAPSHOT.
Not huge by not-a-tiny-island-nation standards, but still gets quite =
some thrashing thanks to the recent inflow of AI crawlers (which love =
the data). Uses things that make it a semi-fine candidate for testing; =
commitlog module, lifecycle event hooks/listeners, and makes heavy use =
of concurrent querying in VirtualThreads.
Also keeps tight track of every error/exception that occurs during R-R =
=E2=80=94 and haven't noticed anything out of the ordinary since =
migrating. So once 5.0-M2 is out, I'll be migrating the rest of my =
projects from 5.0-M1.

Looking forward to having time to try out the agentic stuff. Even =
without that, I've been very pleased with how well at least Claude =
handles working with Cayenne and writing Cayenne code/queries.

Thanks!
