PORTABLE SIMD LANDS AARCH64 SWIZZLE WIN, RUST CORE SHIPS EXCEPTION HANDLING OPTIMIZATION

The portable-simd team merged a significant performance optimization for AArch64 vector operations while the compiler side eliminated unnecessary allocations from exception handling.

Portable-simd's swizzle_dyn optimization [1] now handles 24, 32, 48, and 64-byte vectors on AArch64 by stacking multiple TBL instructions, a targeted win for ARM-heavy workloads. The core Rust compiler shipped a rollup [3] that includes the removal of unnecessary allocas from catch_unwind [2], cutting down exception handling overhead without semantic changes. That same rollup also landed LTO prep work [2] that moves optimization decisions earlier in the pipeline, plus frame pointer annotation improvements for debugging. On the tool side, rustfmt's config documentation [4] now pins version context visibly during scrolling, addressing the reality that config options drift across releases. The crates.io index absorbed routine updates across greentic-runner and atomr-agents ecosystems [5][6] with no breaking changes reported.
