### ClickHouse release v21.11.1.8636-prestable FIXME as compared to v21.10.2.15-stable

#### Backward Incompatible Change

* Remove setting odbc_max_field_size because it is not used anymore. Closes [#30413](https://github.com/ClickHouse/ClickHouse/issues/30413). [#30778](https://github.com/ClickHouse/ClickHouse/pull/30778) ([Kseniia Sumarokova](https://github.com/kssenii)).
* Change order of json_path and json in sql json function (to be correct). Closes [#30449](https://github.com/ClickHouse/ClickHouse/issues/30449). [#30474](https://github.com/ClickHouse/ClickHouse/pull/30474) ([Kseniia Sumarokova](https://github.com/kssenii)).
* Remove MergeTree table setting `write_final_mark`. It will be always `true`. [#30455](https://github.com/ClickHouse/ClickHouse/pull/30455) ([Kseniia Sumarokova](https://github.com/kssenii)).
* Function `bayesAB` is removed. This closes [#26233](https://github.com/ClickHouse/ClickHouse/issues/26233). [#29934](https://github.com/ClickHouse/ClickHouse/pull/29934) ([alexey-milovidov](https://github.com/alexey-milovidov)).
* Now ClickHouse Keeper snapshots compressed with `ZSTD` codec by default instead of custom ClickHouse LZ4 block compression. This behavior can be turned off with `compress_snapshots_with_zstd_format` coordination setting (must be equal on all quorum replicas). Backward incompatibility is quite rare and may happen only when new node will send snapshot (happens in case of recovery) to the old node which is unable to read snapshots in ZSTD format.

This behavior can be turned off with `compress_snapshots_with_zstd_format` coordination setting (must be equal on all quorum replicas).
