Why it matters

Version 0.116.0 brings substantial improvements to error handling in try-finally blocks, debugging capabilities through DAP support, and fixes several parsing and command behavior issues. Windows users benefit from fixes to interactive prompts and glob matching, while completion and nested record handling work more reliably across platforms.
