Improvements
- [7691](https://github.com/rasahq/rasa/issues/7691): Changed the default config to train the `RulePolicy` before the `TEDPolicy`.
This means that conflicting rule/stories will be identified before a potentially slow training of the `TEDPolicy`.
- [7799](https://github.com/rasahq/rasa/issues/7799): Updated validator used by `rasa data validate` to verify that actions used in stories and rules are present in the domain and that form slots match domain slots.
- [7912](https://github.com/rasahq/rasa/issues/7912): Rename `plot_histogram` to `plot_paired_histogram` and fix missing bars in the plot.
- [8225](https://github.com/rasahq/rasa/issues/8225): Changed --data option type in the ``rasa data validate command to allow more than one path to be passed.
Bugfixes
- [8152](https://github.com/rasahq/rasa/issues/8152): The file `failed_test_stories.yml` (generated by `rasa test`) now also includes the wrongly predicted entity as a comment next to the entity of a user utterance.
Additionally, the comment printed next to the intent of a user utterance is printed only if the intent was wrongly predicted (irrelevantly if there was a wrongly predicted entity or not in the specific user utterance).
- [8309](https://github.com/rasahq/rasa/issues/8309): Added check in PikaEventBroker constructor: if port cannot be cast to integer, raise RasaException
- [8388](https://github.com/rasahq/rasa/issues/8388): Fixed bug where missing intent warnings appear when running `rasa test`
- [8611](https://github.com/rasahq/rasa/issues/8611): Update `should_retrain` function to return the correct fingerprint comparison result
even when there is a problem with model unpacking.
- [8719](https://github.com/rasahq/rasa/issues/8719): Handle correctly Telegram edited message.
