I think we can quickly mention c4ab7da6061 in the COPY paragraph, in
some benchmarks it improved perf by close to 2x. Something like this:
"has improved performance in PostgreSQL 17 when the source encoding
matches the destination encoding *and when sending large rows from
server to client*"

Also, I think it's a bit weird to put the current COPY paragraph under
Developer Experience. I think if you want to keep it there instead of
move it to the per section, we should put the line about IGNORE_ERROR
first instead of the perf improvements. Now the IGNORE_ERROR addition
seems more of an afterthought.

s/IGNORE_ERROR/ON_ERROR

I think it would be good to clarify if the following applies when
upgrading from or to PostgreSQL 17:
"Starting with PostgreSQL 17, you no longer need to drop logical
replication slots when using pg_upgrade"

Finally, I personally would have included a lot more links for the new
items in this document. Some that would benefit from being a link
imho:
- pg_createsubscriber
- JSON_TABLE
- SQL/JSON constructor
- SQL/JSON query functions
- ON_ERROR
- sslnegotiation
- PQchangePassword
- pg_maintain
