Scala 3.7.2 release thead

The first release candidate of Scala 3.7.2 is now ready for tests

The new release updates the scala-cli used by Scala runner allowing you use URL in //> using file: directives.
It does also introduce multiple extensions to experimental Capture Calculus features including new applied constructor types making definitions of classes with tracked parameters easier to use.

The Scala 3.7.2 also introduces a new private and experimental setting -Yimplicit-to-given making the implicit definitions in your code to be treated as given - it can be used to test implications of migrating to the new syntax, without rewriting the sources.

The final 3.7.2 release is scheduled for no earlier than 22 July 2025.

I really hope this gets another RC with #23464 backported. It solves a huge longstanding pain-point in my library.
