[bug-libunistring] GNU libunistring-1.0 released [stable]

[Bruno Haible]

GNU libunistring is now available in version 1.0.


==== New in 1.0 ====

* The license has changed from "LGPLv3+ or GPLv2" to "LGPLv3+ or GPLv2+".

* The data tables and algorithms have been updated to Unicode version 14.0.0.

* The functions u8_uctomb, u16_uctomb, u32_uctomb now support strings larger
  than 2 GiB by taking an 'n' argument of type ptrdiff_t (instead of int).

* The functions u*_possible_linebreaks and u*_width_linebreaks now make it
  easier to work with strings that contain CR-LF sequences: In this case,
  in the returned array, it will return UC_BREAK_CR_BEFORE_LF followed by
  UC_BREAK_MANDATORY (instead of twice UC_BREAK_MANDATORY).

* There are new properties for recognizing pictographic symbols and
  regional indicators:
    - UC_PROPERTY_EMOJI                  uc_is_property_emoji
    - UC_PROPERTY_EMOJI_PRESENTATION     uc_is_property_emoji_presentation
    - UC_PROPERTY_EMOJI_MODIFIER         uc_is_property_emoji_modifier
    - UC_PROPERTY_EMOJI_MODIFIER_BASE    uc_is_property_emoji_modifier_base
    - UC_PROPERTY_EMOJI_COMPONENT        uc_is_property_emoji_component
    - UC_PROPERTY_EXTENDED_PICTOGRAPHIC  uc_is_property_extended_pictographic
    - UC_PROPERTY_REGIONAL_INDICATOR     uc_is_property_regional_indicator

* Fixed multithread-safety bugs on Cygwin, native Windows, and Haiku.

[*] Use a .sig file to verify that the corresponding file (without the
.sig suffix) is intact.  First, be sure to download both the .sig file
and the corresponding tarball.  Then, run a command like this:

  gpg --verify libunistring-1.0.tar.gz.sig

If that command fails because you don't have the required public key,
then run this command to import it:

  gpg --keyserver keys.gnupg.net --recv-keys F5BE8B267C6A406D

and rerun the 'gpg --verify' command.
