VimWiki 2022.12.02

This is the first release since v2.5, on 2020-05-26. It accumulates a fairly large set of fixes and some improvements.

With this release, we're more or less switching to a rolling release model. dev is now the permanent main branch, with master kept as a mirror of that in order to avoid breaking existing checkouts of the plugin. Future releases should be more frequent and much, much smaller in scope.

There are likely breaking changes here, although hopefully not too many.
