Changes for version 4.04

  • fix heap overflow causing crashes, possibly information disclosure or worse (CVE-2025-40928), and causes JSON::XS to accept invalid JSON texts as valid in some cases. Thanks to Michael Hudak for finding this, the CPAN Security Group for coordinating this, and Reini Urban for double-checking the patch (and Peter Juhasz for potentially reporting this much earlier).
