Breaking Changes
This release has a breaking change in the debuginfo upload protocol, which is only compatible with Parca server v0.15.0 or higher (more details in #1104 and parca-dev/parca#2248).
What's Changed
Aside from the above-mentioned breaking changes, this release primarily improves resource usage required by the Parca Agent and iterates on the experimental DWARF unwinding support in various aspects working towards enabling it by default.

- Update the design doc for system-wide profiling changes by @kakkoyun in #1084
- .eh_frame: Remove expensive opcode dispatch by @javierhonduco in #1094
- *: Use new signed URL API for uploads when possible by @brancz in #1104
