MusicBrainz Server update, 2023-08-28

On the menu of the day there are some improvements to the editing interface thanks to derat! It’s accompanied with a mesclun of changes (additions, fixes, improvements and updates) related to external links, especially some other databases and new relationship types for art gallery and ticketing. It’s spiced with a pinch of new icons (for collections, genres, and tags) and condiments.

A new release of MusicBrainz Docker is also available that matches this update of MusicBrainz Server. See the release notes for update instructions.

Thanks also to HibiscusKazeneko, Lotheric, Trevor, wonder_al, Xythium, yindesu, and yyoung for having reported bugs and suggested improvements. Thanks to chaban, outsidecontext, RandomMushroom128, and salo.rock for updating the translations. And thanks to all others who tested the beta version!

The git tag is v-2023-08-28.
