Core:
+ - Add gimp-scratch allocator, a fast memory allocator (on the order of
+ magnitude of alloca()), suitable for small (up to a few megabytes),
+ short-lived (usually, bound to the current stack-frame) allocations.
+ Unlike alloca(), gimp-scratch doesn't use the stack, and is therefore
+ safer, and will also serve bigger requests, by falling-back to malloc().
- In gimp_drawable_transform_buffer_affine(), avoid modifying the
clipping mode when transforming layer masks, since this function
is used (among other things) to transform layer masks together with

all.
- Fix a regression on support of various graphics tablet.
+ - Remove the "Edit -> Fade..." feature: it makes GIMP use two buffers
+ instead of one (east into system resources), it's broken in 2.10, and
+ we can make the UX better for filters.

smaller in every cases. In particular some best/worst case are
possible when an algorithm less efficient in general may end up

+ - Add basic support for cursors with a scale factor of 2 for HiDPI

+Usability:

+ - Attempting to transform locked layers or paint on them now results in
+ blinking around the status bar (where the warning message is displayed)
+ and around the toolbar where lock toggles are. The same applies to
+ attempting to move a selection where there is none — GIMP will blink
+ around the toolbar where the moving target (layer, selection, path)
+ is chosen.
+ - GIMP now allows selecting default export file type for new projects.
+ The choice is limited to PNG, JPEG, WebP, PSD, ORA, TIFF, BMP.

- In the Bucket Fill tool, the Alt modifier will now switch to
"FG color fill" when "Pattern fill" was set (instead of doing

Plug-ins:
- file-pdf-save GUI now clearly indicates the order the layers will be
used to make multi-page PDFs.
+ - Add DDS loading/exporting plug-in originally developed by Shawn Kirst

+ - Rename the Guillotine plug-in to Slice Using Guides.
