It announces itself as 22.0.something and has not yet been released.
Some people provide snapshots, though.  No idea whether there is

compile a copy oneself.

You could probably do

M-: (query-replace-regexp "\\([0-9]+\\)" '(replace-eval-replacement format "%d" 
(1+ (string-to-number (match-string 1))))) RET

But it is not exactly kosher.
