Three release branches moving in lockstep, carrying dependency bumps and fixes only.

cmsdotnetrelease-candidatedependenciesltsbug-fixes
◆Current state
The feed is release-candidate traffic across three maintained lines at once — 18.1, 17.6 and 13.16. Content is almost entirely dependency updates (@umbraco-ui/uui, NuGet, MailKit) plus targeted fixes: a content-migration correction, an auth fix so a boot-time token refresh is not treated as a failure, and removal of openapi-ts from the login project.
◆Where it's heading
This is stabilisation work, not direction. The rc2 notes restate what changed since rc, so the same items appear repeatedly across the feed. Maintaining an LTS line (13.x) alongside two current branches is the notable commitment — support breadth is what is being invested in.
◆Prediction
The rc lines should reach final release with the same content; nothing in these entries points to a feature direction beyond keeping three branches current.
