Changes between 5.26.0 and 5.27.0

This is a maintenance release with a new feature, a bug fix, dependency upgrades, and some internal refactoring. It is compatible with 5.26.0. All users are encouraged to upgrade.

This release introduces a Netty-based frame handler and deprecates the NIO-based one. Users of NIO are encouraged to switch to Netty. This does not change anything for users of the default frame handler (socket-based, blocking IO).
