This month I managed to finish off a few refalias-related issues, as
well as lend some time to help BooK further progress implementing
PPC0014

 1   = Clear pad after multivar foreach
       https://github.com/Perl/perl5/pull/240

 3   = Fix B::Concise output for OP_MULTIPARAM
       https://github.com/Perl/perl5/pull/24066

 6   = Implement multivariable `foreach` on refalias
       https://github.com/Perl/perl5/pull/24094

 1   = SVf_AMAGIC flag tidying (as yet unmerged)
       https://github.com/Perl/perl5/pull/24129

 2.5 = Mentoring BooK towards implementing PPC0014

 2   = Various github code reviews

Total: 15.5 hours

My focus for February will now be to try to get both `attributes-v2`
and `magic-v2` branches in a state where they can be reviewed, and at
least the first parts merged in time for 5.43.9, and hence 5.44, giving
us a good base to build further feature ideas on top of.
