The new package provides generic framework and new commands to find

** New package Xref replaces Etags's front-end and UI
The new package Xref provides a generic framework and new commands to
find and move to definitions of functions, macros, data structures
etc., as well as go back to the location where you were before moving
to a definition. It supersedes and obsoletes many Etags commands,
while still using the etags.el code that reads the TAGS tables as one
of its back-ends.
The command `xref-find-definitions' replaces `find-tag' and provides
an interface to pick one definition among several.
`tags-loop-continue' is now unbound. `xref-pop-marker-stack' replaces
`pop-tag-mark', but has a keybinding (`M-,'), unlike `pop-tag-mark'.
*** New key bindings
`xref-find-definitions' replaces `find-tag' and provides an interface
to pick one destination among several. Hence, `tags-loop-continue' is
unbound. `xref-pop-marker-stack' replaces `pop-tag-mark', but uses an
easier binding, which is now unoccupied (`M-,').
`xref-find-definitions-other-window' replaces `find-tag-other-window'.
`xref-find-definitions-other-frame' replaces `find-tag-other-frame'.
`xref-find-apropos' replaces `find-tag-regexp'.
As a result of this, the following commands are now obsolete:
`find-tag-other-window', `find-tag-other-frame', `find-tag-regexp',
`tags-apropos', and `tags-loop-continue'.
*** New variables
`find-tag-marker-ring-length' is now an obsolete alias for
`xref-marker-ring-length'. `find-tag-marker-ring' is now an obsolete
alias for a private variable. `xref-push-marker-stack' and
