-New: The functions AlignedVector::replicate_across_communicator()
-and Table::replicate_across_communicator()
-allow copying information across MPI processes.

-New: FEInterfaceValues now can use FEValuesExtractors to extract scalar or
-vector components like FEValues does.

-Fixed: Work around a memory leak issue in OpenMPI 4.1.0 triggered by our
-Utilities::MPI::min_max_avg() function by repeatedly allocating and freeing
-MPI_Datatype handles.

-New: There are now versions of the constructors of the
-Functions::InterpolatedTensorProductGridData and
-Functions::InterpolatedUniformGridData classes
-that *move* the data in the arguments given,
-instead of copying it.

-Added: The MPI_InitFinalize RAII class has gained an
-MPI_InitFinalize::signals::at_mpi_init and an
-MPI_InitFinalize::signals::at_mpi_finalize signal that are triggered
-immediately after initializing the MPI context with <code>MPI_Init</code>
-and immediately before deinitializing the MPI context with
-<code>MPI_Finalize</code>.

-Deprecated: The FEValuesViews::Scalar, FEValuesViews::Vector,
-FEValuesViews::Tensor, and FEValuesViews::SymmetricTensor classes all
-have `OutputType` structures that defined the types of evaluating
-the values and derivatives of finite element fields at quadrature
-points. These structures have been deprecated, and the corresponding
-types are now defined via local `using` declarations in the classes
-mentioned above.

-New: Add a function taylor_estimate_function_bounds, which estimates the range
-of the value and gradient components of a Function<dim> over a
-BoundingBox<dim>, by approximating the function by a 2nd order Taylor
-polynomial.

-Improved: There is now a cache for TriaAccessor::vertex_index() for the cells
-of a mesh, which considerably speeds up operations with intensive use of
-`cell->vertex()` or `cell->vertex_index()`.

-Fixed: The function Particles::Generators::probabilistic_locations could crash

-Fixed: DataOutBase::write_ucd() has been fixed to output vertices in the correct
