JRuby 9.2.x is compatible with Ruby 2.5.x and stays in sync with C Ruby. As
always there is a mix of miscellaneous fixes so be sure to read the issue
list below. All users are encouraged to upgrade.
As we are still actively working on 9.3.0.0 we decided to put out another
9.2.x release to fix some of the more recently reported issues.
Special thanks to our external contributors this release: @ahorek,
@xaptronic

(primarily Windows). (#6654, #6655, #6678, #6685)

- Improved support for Open3 on Windows. #6291, (#6648, #6649)
