Highlight:

* [RFC 104](https://gdal.org/en/latest/development/rfc/rfc104_gdal_cli.html):
  Adding a "gdal" front-end command line interface.
  - See the [list of \ 
commands](https://gdal.org/en/latest/programs/index.html#gdal-application)
  - Includes new "gdal raster calc" and "gdal raster \ 
resclassify" utilities.
  - "gdal raster tile", C++ port of gdal2tiles, runs faster (3x to 6x \ 
in some cases)
  - Includes "gdal vsi list/copy/delete/move/sync" (ports of Python \ 
sample scripts)
  - Includes "gdal driver {driver_name}" for driver-specific commands.
  - Includes smart Bash autocompletion
  - Includes C, C++, Python API
* Add [GDALG](https://gdal.org/en/latest/drivers/vector/gdalg.html) (GDAL
  Streamed Algorithm Format) driver: reading of on-the-fly / streamed vector
  dataset replaying compatible "gdal" command lines (kind of VRT).
