I've made what is likely to be the last ever release of Search::Xapian.

The main motivation is to make it give a clear error message if you try
to build with Xapian 2.x (which won't work because the deprecated
Xapian::ValueRangeProcessor and subclasses have been removed from
the C++ API) and to direct people to the newer Perl bindings in
xapian-bindings.

Like the previous release, this release should work with any Xapian 1.4.x
release (and also 1.2.x but that's been obsolete for some time now).

There were also a few changes which have been sitting in git for a while,
and a couple of minor things I noticed while preparing the release.

The full Changes entry for this release is:

1.2.25.6  Fri Apr  3 22:40:30 UTC 2026
	[Changes contributed by Olly Betts]
	- Trying to build with Xapian 2.x now fails at Makefile.PL time with
	  a clear error recommending the newer Perl bindings in
	  xapian-bindings.
	- README: Improve wording regarding status of these bindings vs the
	  SWIG-generated ones.
	- Makefile.PL: Update reference to git branch name (svn/1.2 has been
	  renamed to RELEASE/1.2).
	- Fix typo which prevented wrapping DatabaseClosedError and
	  DatabaseNotFoundError even when using xapian-core >= 1.4.10.
	[Changes contributed by Gregor Herrmann]
	- `make clean` now removes the generate source handle_exception.cc
	  and the `testdb*` databases create by `make test`.
	- t/symbol-test.t: Run `make realclean` on the SymbolTest module at
	  the end of the test to avoid leaving generated files behind.
