Populate the changelog for the upcoming v2.8 release, per step 1 of the release process. Beyond the mirrored list of merged pull requests, the entry introduces two curated sections: Highlights, summarizing the release from a user's perspective, and Breaking changes, calling out the dropped qdl-ks/qdl-ramdump standalone binaries and the rejection of mixed XML-and-verb invocations that scripts and packaging may rely on.

We are preparing the QDL v2.8 release and have tagged a release candidate,
v2.8-rc1. Before cutting the final release, we would really appreciate any help testing it on as many platforms as possible.If you already use QDL to flash your board[s] as part of your daily work, the single most helpful thing you can do is switch to the latest rc for your regular flashing and let us know how it goes - real workflows catch what test suites miss, and "no problems after a week of use" is exactly the signal we need to cut the release
