• Auto discover AWS account ID in the DynamoDB instrumentation by @meiao in 2148

• Support pekko-http on scala 3 for versions 1.0.0 till latest by @kanderson250 in 2163
• Allow JFR queue size and harvest interval to be configured via agent config by @jtduffy in 2168
  New configs are:

  jfr:
    # The time interval, in seconds, of how often JFR data is sent to New Relic.
    # The default is 10 seconds.
    harvest_interval: 10

    # The size of the queue used to store JFR events. Increasing this can reduce gaps in JFR reported data
    # but can also cause resource issues in the agent or cause data to be dropped if backend pipeline
    # limits are exceeded.
    # See: https://docs.newrelic.com/docs/data-apis/ingest-apis/event-api/introduction-event-api/#limits
    #      https://docs.newrelic.com/docs/data-apis/ingest-apis/metric-api/metric-api-limits-restricted-attributes/
    # Default is 250000
    queue_size: 250000
