[Philip Chimento <pchimento src gnome org>]

The unsigned tag '1.73.1' was created.

    Version 1.73.1
    
    - The interactive interpreter now displays its output more
      intelligently, pretty-printing the properties and values of objects
      based on their type. This improvement also applies to the log() and
      logError() functions.
    
    - New API: DBus proxy classes now include methods named with the suffix
      'Async', which perform async calls to DBus APIs and return Promises.
      This is in addition to the existing suffixes 'Sync' (for blocking
      calls) and 'Remote' (for async calls with callbacks.)
    
    - There is an override for Gio.ActionMap.prototype.add_action_entries().
      Previously this method wouldn't work because it required an array of
      Gio.ActionEntry objects, which are not possible to construct in GJS.
      Now it can be used with an array of plain objects. (e.g.
      `this.add_action_entries([{name: 'open', activate() { ... }}]);`
    
    - GJS is now compatible with libffi 3.4.2 and later. All earlier
      versions of GJS are not compatible with libffi 3.4.2 and later unless
      libffi is built with the --disable-exec-static-tramp flag.
    
    - GJS now requires Meson 0.54 to build.
