One of the bigger-ticket bugs is:

* Fix a self-deadlock that could occur while replaying WAL generated by an older
minor version. This regression, introduced in the previous set of minor
releases, could cause a standby server following a primary running an older
minor version to become stuck.

Contrary to what you say at the top of the list, this doesn't affect
v18, only v14-v16. I think this one is definitely important enough
to mention, but maybe put it separately from the main list?
