Make reference-section-title work with jats+element_citations (#9021).

Add bits as synonym of jats as input format.

JATS reader:

• Modify JATS reader to handle BITS too (#9138, Julia Diaz). Add provision for title-group, book, book-part-wrapper, book-meta, book-part-meta, book-title, book-title-group, index, toc, legend, title, collection-meta
• Fix handling of alt-text (#9130, Julia Diaz). Previously we were looking for an attribute that doesn’t exist in JATS; alt-text is provided by a child element.

CommonMark reader:

• Handle Ext_tex_math_gfm (#9121). Parse GFM-specific math constructions when tex_math_gfm enabled.

DokuWiki reader:

• Allow autolinks to be avoided using e.g. https:%%//%%... (#9153).
• Parse <code> and <file> as block-level code (#9154). Previously we treated them as inline code in some contexts, but that is not how DokuWiki works.

LaTeX reader:

• Better handle spacing commands \hfill, \vfill, \hskip, \vskip, etc. (#9150).
• Fix incorrect abbreviation for astronomical unit (#9125, Michael McClurg).

Markdown reader:

• Fix blindspot with superscript in links (#8981). Previously [^super^](#ref) wasn’t parsed as a link, due to code that was meant to prevent footnote markers from being recognized as reference links. This commit tightens up that code to avoid this bad effect. We have also added a new restriction on footnote labels: they cannot contain the characters ^, [, or ]. Though this is technically a breaking change, we suspect that the impact will be minimal, as it’s very unlikely people would be using these characters in their note labels.
• Don’t apply --default-image-extension to data URIs (#9118).
• More accurate check that a normalCite is not a link, bracketed span, or reference (#9080).

HTML reader:

• Allow th to close td and vice versa (#9090).
• Parse task lists using input elements (#9047, Seth Speaks).

Creole reader:

• Handle empty cells correctly (#9141, Sascha Wilde).

Org writer:

• Escape literal *, |, # at beginning of line with ZWS (#9159).

ICML writer:

• Prevent doubled attributes (#9158).

Powerpoint writer:

• Fix a corruption error caused when the document used both a regular png and a png in a data URI (#9113). (Similarly for any other image format.) The problem was that duplicate entries in [Content Types].xml were being created, one for the mime type image/png, one for image/png;base64.

LaTeX writer:

• Fix rowspans in tables so they use the width of the column (= as the width parameter) (#9140).
• Don’t treat table as “simple” if they have col widths. This should help fix a problem wherein some grid tables with colspans were overly wide (#9140).
• Fix uneven indents in line block output (#9088).

JATS writer: fix 3.1.4 regression in handling block-level metadata (#9092).

Ms writer: improvements in image handling (#4475).

• PDFPIC is now used for PDF images in figures.
• Inline images that are postscript or PDF are rendered using PSPIC or PDFPIC. This isn’t ideal, because they will still be rendered as if in a separate paragraph, but it’s probably better than just printing the image name.
• Units are included in height.

HTML writer:

• If raw format is an HTML side deck format, emit it (James J Balamuta).

Typst writer:

• Add #box around image to make it inline. (#9104) An #image by itself in typst is a block-level element. To force images to be inline (as they are in pandoc), we need to add a box with an explicit width. When a width is not given in image attributes, we compute one from the image itself, when possible.
• Don’t allow long heading to wrap (#9132).
• Escape ( (#9137). If unescaped ( occurs in certain contexts, it can be parsed as function application.

Man writer:

• Fix some spacing issues around links (#9120). We need to use \c before a .UR or .MT, to avoid an extra space, and also after. To ensure that a space at the beginning of the following line doesn’t get swallowed up, we escape it with \.
• Use UR, MT macros for URLs, emails (#9120).

Text.Pandoc.Extensions:

• Add Ext_tex_math_gfm constructor to Extension (#9121). [API change]. This handles two GitHub-specific syntaxes for math. This is now default for gfm, in addition to tex_math_dollars.
• Remove duplicates for Ext_raw_html and Ext_pipe_tables in some of the lists (Tim Stewart).

Text.Pandoc.Metadata: Add helpful message on some metadata YAML errors (#9155).

Text.Pandoc.Shared:

• splitSentences: don’t split after initials. This improves the man and ms writer output, preventing sentence breaks after initials.
• Add addPandocAttributes function [API change]. This is meant to simplify addition of attributes to Pandoc elements: for elements that don’t have a slot for attributes, an enclosing Div or Span is added to hold the attributes.

MANUAL.txt:

• Clarify that formatting can’t cross line boundaries in line blocks (#9119).
• Fix legacy option for citation (#8737, 3w36zj6)

Update et translations (priiduonu).

Updated no translations (Stephan Daus). Renamed no.yaml (macrolanguage Norwegian) to nb.yaml (Norwegian Bokmål). Created soft symbolic link from no.yaml pointing to nb.yaml.

Lua subsystem: Use the newest LPeg version (lpeg-1.1.*) (#9107, Albert Krewinkel).

Default epub.css: Apply style to h6, format styles, and combine identical styles under shared selectors (samuel-weinhardt).

Update nix flake with dependencies (piq9117).

LaTeX template: fix \CSLBlock vertical space (John Purnell).

Allow tasty 1.5 and Diff 0.5.

Require commonmark-extensions 0.2.4, commonmark 0.2.4.

Require texmath 0.12.8.4. This should improve math in powerpoint, fixing empty boxes around roots in some cases.

Require typst 0.3.2.1
