Stop bundling CVS plugin.
Jenkins will no longer automatically install CVS plugin on startup if a plugin depending on Jenkins (then Hudson) 1.340 or earlier is discovered.
If you use a plugin that relies on the functionality provided by CVS plugin and manage plugins outside the Jenkins plugin manager, you will now need to ensure yourself that a recent release of CVS plugin is installed.
Jenkins will attempt to load such plugins but may fail at any time during startup or afterwards with
ClassNotFoundException or similar.

The deprecated Jenkins CLI Protocol versions 1 and 2, and Java Web Start Agent Protocol versions 1, 2, and 3 have been disabled. If you still use these protocols (e.g. remoting-based CLI, or old
agent.jars on agents), you need to re-enable these protocols after upgrade, or upgrade the clients. The same recommendations as in The 2.121.x upgrade guide for remoting changes apply here.

If you have the Authorize Project plugin installed and configured, its configuration will now be treated as final with respect to the behavior of Job/Build checks from Build other projects and Build after other projects are built. Formerly, if a Per-project configurable Build Authorization was enabled globally but some projects did not specify an Authorization, the two aforementioned checks would automatically fall back to checking as anonymous (typically denying build permission). To restore the former behavior, explicitly configure a Project default Build Authorization to be Run as anonymous. Note that this will affect all build-scoped permission checks, including for example Agent/Build.
