New RPCs
--------
+- Information on soft fork status has been moved from `getblockchaininfo`

+ status in `getblockchaininfo` can currently be restored using the
+ configuration `-deprecatedrpc=softforks`, but this will be removed in
+ a future release. Note that in either case, the `status` field
+ now reflects the status of the current block rather than the next

GUI changes

- UTXOs which are locked via the GUI are now stored persistently in the
wallet database, so are not lost on node shutdown or crash. (#23065)
+- The Bech32 checkbox has been replaced with a dropdown for all address types, including the new Bech32m (BIP-350) standard for Taproot enabled wallets.
