Merlin 4.11

We are pleased to announce the release of Merlin 4.11 for OCaml 4.14.1, 5.0, and 5.1.

This release brings official support for OCaml 5.1 and introduces some changes to Emacs' default bindings proposed by the community:

• Unbind C-c C-r (to avoid shadowing tuareg-eval-region) and bind C-c C-v instead to merlin-error-check;
• Rebind C-c C-d to merlin-document and bind C-c M-d and C-c | instead to merlin-destruct;
• Bind C-u C-c C-t to merlin-type-expr.

Thanks to everyone involved!
