Wine 10.9 adds EGL support for all graphics drivers, vkd3d 1.16, and other enhancements

Wine 10.9 introduces initial support for generating Windows Runtime metadata in the Wine Interface Definition Language tool, expanding the project's development capabilities for users who rely on advanced Windows interoperability features. The update adds compiler-based exception handling with the Clang compiler. This change increases Wine's compatibility with modern compilation workflows and environments.

Following these enhancements, the release introduces extended support for the EGL library across all graphics drivers. This move benefits users working with a broader range of graphics hardware and rendering backends. Additionally, Wine 10.9 now bundles vkd3d version 1.16, offering improved support for Direct3D translation and potentially increasing compatibility with demanding Windows titles that utilize Direct3D features.

These upgrades are complemented by a collection of bug fixes aimed at improving stability and addressing various user-reported issues across different supported platforms, including Linux, macOS, and BSD.
