This release improves migration speed, recovery, and data accuracy.

Export custom fields and comments faster with fewer repeated checks, and cancel long user or customer exports more promptly.
Recover more reliably from failed migrations, with improved retry coordination and clearer handling of data errors.
Keep attachment uploads running when the preferred connection method is unavailable, and avoid connection failures on some Oracle-backed installations.
Improve app custom-field compatibility and ensure app database exports finish before migration continues.
Where enabled, preserve service-project comment visibility and issue parent links more accurately, and improve cross-project board placement.
Avoid unnecessary migration blocks from anonymous-permission warnings.
