Elastic moves to 9.5 and takes cross-project search GA on Serverless.

◆Current state
Elastic Stack is now maintained on the 9.5, 9.4 and 8.19 lines, with patch releases arriving together across branches. The one substantive move is cross-project search reaching GA on Serverless, which links projects and queries them from one Discover or ES|QL session.
◆Where it's heading
Serverless is where the feature work shows up: cross-project search and Azure Private Link both landed there in about a month. The self-managed lines are getting steady patch trains, which keeps 8.19 viable as a long-lived branch.
◆Prediction
Expect further Serverless parity with self-managed cluster features, and continued patch trains across branches. The patch notes shown here do not support a more specific call.

Cross-project search is GA on Serverless: link projects and query them from a single Discover or ES|QL session, without certificates or remote cluster setup. It removes the main operational cost of splitting data across projects.
