Release version 0.28.3

[kevinbackhouse]

Let's release version 0.28.3 so that we can ship these two bugfixes:

• Deprecate enableBMFF API (backport) #2985
• Use readOrThrow() to detect premature EOF (backport #3005) #3006

Thanks for the announcement. Will allow us to drop pretty much all patches that we have on top of the previous version.

By the way, the release notes will link to this issue, so if there are any bugfixes or new features that you'd like to highlight, please do it by adding a comment here.

Perhaps these are also worth mentioning:

• remove time regex from value (backport #2933) #2941
• fix(lens): canon lens detecton should be independent of locale (backport #2938) #2942
• [backport] Add EXIV2_ENABLE_FILESYSTEM_ACCESS option #2994

[kevinbackhouse]

I think everything's ready. Any objections to me publishing the release on 2024-07-08 (Monday)?

I don't know what query/command is being used to generate this, or if there's an easy solution, but it seems like every commit from a contributor PR is being attributed to @mergify. I probably won't shock anyone when I say that none of those commits were actually contributed by the Mergify bot. 😀

Not a huge deal, but it makes the changelog attributions sort of pointless. Almost better to leave them out entirely, I'd argue, than listing @mergify for everything.

(Edit: By which I mean, leave out just the author tags, not the commits themselves.)
