now efficiently yield `SparseVector`s or `SparseMatrix`s as appropriate ([#19239],
[#19371], [#19518], [#19438], [#19690], [#19724], [#19926], [#19934], [#20009]).

* The operators `!` and `∘` (`\circ<tab>` at the REPL and in most code editors) now
respectively perform predicate function negation and function composition. For example,
`map(!iszero, (0, 1))` is now equivalent to `map(x -> !iszero(x), (0, 1))` and
`map(uppercase ∘ hex, 250:255)` is now equivalent to
`map(x -> uppercase(hex(x)), 250:255)` ([#17155]).
