     now causes string substitutions to measure the width and precision in
     characters instead of bytes.
<li> If the [xColumn] method in a [virtual table] implementation returns
     an error message using [sqlite3_result_error()] then give that error
     message preference over internally-generated messages.
<li> Added the -A command-line option to the [CLI] to make it easier to manage
     [SQLite Archive files].
<li> Enhance the [sqlite3changeset_apply()] interface so that it is hardened
     against attacks from deliberately corrupted [changeset] objects.
<li> Query optimizer enhancements:
<ol type='a'>
  <li> Improve the [omit-left-join optimization] so that it works in cases where
       the right-hand table is UNIQUE but not necessarily NOT NULL.
  <li> Improve the [push-down optimization] so that it works for many LEFT JOINs.
  <li> Add the [LEFT JOIN strength reduction optimization] that converts a LEFT
       JOIN into an ordinary JOIN if there exist terms in the WHERE clause
