Standard Library Changes
------------------------

* The `Libdl` module's methods `dlopen_e()` and `dlsym_e()` have been
updated to return `nothing` as the indicator of a nonexistent symbol
or library. Additionally, the `dlopen()` and `dlsym()` methods have
gained a `throw_error` keyword argument, to replace usages such as
`dlsym_e(args...)` with `dlsym(args...; throw_error=false)`. ([#28888])

Deprecated or removed
---------------------

The old package manager (now called `OldPkg`) has been moved to a
separate repository at https://github.com/JuliaArchive/OldPkg.jl ([#27930])
