New features:
- Update to CodeMirror to 5.37, which includes f-string syntax for
Python 3.6 ([3816](https://github.com/jupyter/notebook/pull/3816))
- Update jquery-ui to 1.12 ([3836](https://github.com/jupyter/notebook/pull/3836))
- Check Host header to more securely protect localhost deployments
from DNS rebinding. This is a pre-emptive measure, not fixing a
known vulnerability ([3766](https://github.com/jupyter/notebook/pull/3766)). Use
`.NotebookApp.allow_remote_access` and
`.NotebookApp.local_hostnames` to configure access.
- Allow access-control-allow-headers to be overridden ([3886](https://github.com/jupyter/notebook/pull/3886))
- Allow configuring max_body_size and max_buffer_size ([3829](https://github.com/jupyter/notebook/pull/3829))
- Allow configuring get_secure_cookie keyword-args ([3778](https://github.com/jupyter/notebook/pull/3778))
- Respect nbconvert entrypoints as sources for exporters ([3879](https://github.com/jupyter/notebook/pull/3879))
- Include translation sources in source distributions ([3925](https://github.com/jupyter/notebook/pull/3925), [3931](https://github.com/jupyter/notebook/pull/3931))
- Various improvements to documentation ([3799](https://github.com/jupyter/notebook/pull/3799), [3800](https://github.com/jupyter/notebook/pull/3800),
[3806](https://github.com/jupyter/notebook/pull/3806), [3883](https://github.com/jupyter/notebook/pull/3883), [3908](https://github.com/jupyter/notebook/pull/3908))
Fixing problems:
- Fix breadcrumb link when running with a base url ([3905](https://github.com/jupyter/notebook/pull/3905))
- Fix possible type error when closing activity stream ([3907](https://github.com/jupyter/notebook/pull/3907))
- Disable metadata editing for non-editable cells ([3744](https://github.com/jupyter/notebook/pull/3744))
- Fix some styling and alignment of prompts caused by regressions in
5.6.0.
- Enter causing page reload in shortcuts editor ([3871](https://github.com/jupyter/notebook/pull/3871))
