The Rust compiler dropped a clearer name for its LLVM-only ABI, crates.io streamlined its API and cache invalidation, and flate2 released a new version with meaningful performance work.

Rust renamed `extern "unadjusted"` to `extern "llvm-intrinsic"` [1], which "makes it clear that it is only meant for LLVM intrinsics and not for defining or calling arbitrary user functions." The cleanup also removes unnecessary references [2] and fixes a name in `rustc_public` [3]. The auto-merge [4] landed, and SVE LLVM intrinsics now use the new ABI name [5]. On crates.io, Tobias Bieniek delivered a trio of API changes: the Find User endpoint now accepts `include=linked_accounts` [6], the `User.url` fields are deprecated [7], and the `CACHE_TAG_INVALIDATIONS_ENABLED` feature flag is gone [8]. Finally, flate2-rs released 1.1.10 [9], which reuses zlib's decoder buffer and adds a reset method for `GzDecoder`.
