Highlights

This is a maintenance release focused on dependency upgrades, security patches, and a fix in the rich-indexer. There are no consensus or protocol changes.

• Rich-indexer fix: Corrected prefix-search upper-bound calculation so that leading zero bytes are preserved and all-0xFF prefixes no longer overflow, ensuring complete and accurate query results (#5166).
• Security updates: Multiple rustls-webpki bumps (up to 0.103.13) and a thin-vec bump address advisories surfaced by cargo audit (#5182, #5186, #5170, #5154). make security-audit is green again after updating keccak to 0.1.6 (#5158).
• Updated testnet bootnodes for improved peer discovery on the Pudge testnet (#5176).
• New documentation: A guide for running a dev chain from existing data (#5125) and a refreshed platform-support page (#5142).

Upgrading from v0.205.0 is recommended for all node operators to pick up the security fixes and the rich-indexer correctness fix. No migration or reindex is required.
