Profiler: Removing the Loading.IDRemapping profiler tag which was causing excessive profiling overhead when loading AssetBundles.
Profiler: Selections CPU or GPU samples made in the CPU Usage and GPU Usage Profiler Modules now carry over correctly and persistently to all views (Timeline, Hierarchy, Raw Hierarchy) as well as to all frames that contain them. In frames other than the one the selection was originally made in, the selection will point to the first sample that provides the best match to the stack of sample names that lead up to that original sample. So if there are e.g. multiple Components of the same type "MyComponent", and you select the "MyComponent.Update()" sample of one of them, there is no way for the Profiler to identify the "MyComponent.Update()" sample of exactly that sample Component in the next frame. It will therefore just select the very first "MyComponent.Update()" sample it can find. If a part of the Sample Stack is missing in a frame, the selection Tooltip in Timeline or an extra line at the bottom of the Hierarchy views will alert you of the fact, that the selection that was carried over to this frame is just an approximation. An option was added to show the difference in this approximated Sample Stack, and the originally selected Sample Stack. If not even one of the sample names from the original selection fits the samples in a particular frame and thread, no selection will be displayed. If a selection was made on a thread other than the Main Thread, switching to the Hierarchy Views will automatically switch them to the right thread this selection was made in. (1066309)

Burst: Eager-compilation is now cancelled when script compilation starts, to prevent spurious errors related to recompiled assemblies.
Burst: Exception strings no longer contain the entry-point name of the job/function-pointer that caused the throw. This change was required because the Burst compiler has to produce deterministic results from any given compile, which is fundamentally opposed to per-entry-point function derivations.

In versions of Unity older than 2019.3, previously-compiled methods will not be recompiled after changing those options, which could lead to undefined behavior where methods may or may not be compiled with the correct options. This change removes that possibility.
Burst: Made the compiler better at constant-folding complex static readonly constructors.
Burst: Open-generic static methods are not supported by Burst, but they were previously visible in Burst InspectorBurst: they are now hidden.
Burst: Temporarily removed the Burst compiler warning about exception throws not in [Conditional("ENABLE_UNITY_COLLECTIONS_CHECKS")] methods, to let us address user feedback. The next minor version of Burst will reincorporate this in a more friendly manner.
Burst: The Burst Inspector no longer uses JIT compilation. The code it shows is now compiled the same way as for editor / player usage.
Burst: The Burst menu-item Safety Checks has been changed to a modal choice of Off, On, and Force On. Force On will overwrite any user job or function-pointer with DisableSafetyChecks = true. To avoid users falling into the consistent trap of having Safety Checks set to Off, any reload of the Editor will issue a warning telling the user that Safety Checks have been reset to On.
Burst: The command line option --burst-disable-compilation is now disabling entirely Burst, including the AppDomain.
Burst: Updated Cross Compilation Tooling To LLVM 10.
Burst: Upgraded Burst to use LLVM Version 11.0.1 by default, bringing the latest optimization improvements from the LLVM project.

Burst: Warnings are hidden in the inspector view.
Burst: When using "Executable Only" build type on Universal Windows Platform, Burst will now only generate code for a single CPU architecture that you're building for.

Scripting: Added support for new managed code stripping annotation attributes.
Scripting: Added support for Unity Version Defines in Assembly definition import options.
This feature improvement allows scripts to easily specify different code snippets for different unity version ranges. This is especially useful for introducing calls to newly added public APIs, in which case these API calls needs to be guarded by defines based on a unity version range of a given unity version or later.
Unity version range expression syntax is the same as package version range expressions. Unity version format differs from package version format, thus Unity version expressions are evaluated based on some rules specific to the Unity version format:
Scripting: Changed Roslyn Analyzers to be run part of normal Compilation Step.
This will also result in Analyzer errors to be treated as an Compile Error.

Burst: A new option [BurstCompile(DisableSafetyChecks = true)] that allows per job or function-pointer disabling of safety checks. This allows users to have blessed code run fast always.
Burst: Added a compiler warning for any use of throwing an exception from a method not guarded by [Conditional("ENABLE_UNITY_COLLECTIONS_CHECKS")]. Since exceptions in Burst are only supported in the editor, this provides a useful warning to users who may be relying on try/catch behaviors for control-flow which is not supported in final game builds.

Package Manager: Package Manager: 'Release Candidate (RC)' packages will no longer be tagged as such for users on release builds- it was decided that it's confusing for users to see a tag different from the version tag (-pre), so release builds just tag RC packages as Pre-Release now. Users on Developer builds still see RC packages tagged as RC.
Package Manager: Removed 'See all versions' option in version list for external users, added Project Setting for internal users to re-enable this option.
Package Manager: Updated Package Manager UI version tags for new Lifecycle and logic for recommending/showing available versions to users.
Particles: Added new Emitter velocity mode - Manual. This mode can be used to override the ParticleSystem's calculated emitter velocity value. This gives scripts complete control over the ParticleSystem velocity. It is also possible to use this whilst authoring a system to simulate movement when making an effect that relies on movement.
