It used to be possible to customize 'url-privacy-level' so that the
user's email address was sent along in HTTP requests. Since
'url-privacy-level' is also a blocklist, rather than an allowlist,
this meant that a mere misconfiguration of Emacs risked exposing the
user's email address. This is a serious privacy risk, and it is thus
better if we remove this dangerous feature altogether.
* lisp/url/url-http.el (url-http-create-request): Never send the
user email address.
* lisp/url/url-vars.el (url-personal-mail-address): Make obsolete.
* lisp/url/url-privacy.el (url-setup-privacy-info): Don't set
above obsolete variable.
* doc/misc/url.texi (Customization):
* lisp/url/url-vars.el (url-privacy-level): Update documentation
to reflect the above changes.
* lisp/url/url-irc.el (url-irc): Use more robust `condition-case'
pattern instead, which will still fail when met with various edge
cases. The old way was only useful for non-variadic lambda lists
consisting entirely of named positional parameters. (Bug#56514)

function to look for a more recent version of public_suffix_list.dat
on the system than the one that is shipped with Emacs.

* lisp/url/url-future.el (url-future-canceled-p): Rename from
'url-future-cancelled-p'. Update all uses. Make old names into
obsolete function aliases.
* lisp/url/url-irc.el (url-irc-function): Change signature of function
interface to expect a final "scheme" argument, such as "ircs".
(url-irc): Call `url-irc-function' with new positional argument, the
scheme extracted via `url-type' from the input URL.
(url-irc-erc, url-irc-rcirc, url-irc-zenirc): Accept a URL scheme as a
sixth positional arg.
(url-ircs-default-port, url-ircs): Add new autoloaded constant and
alias for `url-scheme-get-property' to recognize. Do this to avoid
having to add another file.
* lisp/net/browse-url.el (browse-url-irc-function): Add new option.
(browse-url--irc): Add new function to call `browse-url-irc-function'.
(browse-url-default-handlers): Add "irc://" entry.
(browse-url-irc): Add new function to serve as general handler for
"irc://" URLS. Accept trailing variadic args to accommodate
non-browse-url interfaces as well.
* test/lisp/net/browse-url-tests.el
(browse-url-tests-select-handler-irc): Add test for "irc://" URL
pattern.
* etc/NEWS: Mention select browse-url and url-irc
changes. (Bug#56514.)
Binding it causes errors when some of the enclosed code ends up
loading a `.el` file, and it is unnecessary since the rest of
the code (in `url-file-asynch-callback`) is already careful to
use `insert-file-contents-literally`.
* lisp/gnus/gnus-group.el (gnus-read-ephemeral-bug-group): Don't
bind coding system variables, because that leads to loading other
files (like cookie files) using that coding system (bug#58227).
* lisp/url/url-handlers.el (url-insert-file-literally): New function.
(url-insert): Allow forcing no-decode.
* lisp/url/url.el (url-retrieve-synchronously): Don't kill the
process buffer unless we made one (bug#58218). This makes HTTP
free connection marking work on premature timeouts.
* lisp/url/url-util.el (url-display-message): New function.
(url-display-percentage): Make obsolete in favor of
url-display-message.
* lisp/url/url-http.el
(url-http-content-length-after-change-function):
Prefer 'url-display-message' to 'url-display-percentage'.
(url-http-content-length-after-change-function)
(url-http-chunked-encoding-after-change-function):
Remove ineffectual calls to 'url-display-percentage'.
* lisp/net/eww.el (eww--dwim-expand-url): Handle `about: ' URLs.
(bug#56885)
* lisp/url/url-about.el (url-about): Return correct content type
for HTML data.
* lisp/url/url-http.el (url-http--get-referer): Refrain from
looking for a referrer if the lastloc had no host.
* lisp/url/url-util.el (url-eat-trailing-space): Redefine as
obsolete function alias for 'string-trim-right'.
(url-strip-leading-spaces): Redefine as obsolete function alias
for 'string-trim-left'.
The w3 package was removed from GNU ELPA in 2020 as it doesn't run on
a recent Emacs, and development had stopped over a decade before that.
If anyone wants to revive the w3 package, they should look this all
over, but it doesn't make sense for us to maintain this support code.
