Filter expressions, string extracts, and more

(#11868 and #11940)

We've added filter expressions to let you write more complex filters that include ORs in them, and have also added a whole host of new spreadsheet-like functions to the custom column and custom metric formula editors.

Reference saved questions in your SQL queries

(#11835)

You can now reference the results of saved questions in your SQL or native queries using syntax like with my_result as {{ #123 }} select * from my_result, where #123 is the ID number of a saved question.

Performance improvements

(#12025, #12026, and #11809)

We've refactored a number of things in this version, including how we handle the saved question "database" that allows you to use the results of saved questions as starting data for new ones. We hope you'll find that the net result is a much snappier loading times of pages throughout much of Metabase.
