libidn2 2.0.0 released

[Tim Rühsen]

Hi,

we are happy to announce a new alpha release 2.0.0 of libidn2.

This will be the last release before we go stable.
Please test and report back any issues.

We already changed the versioning layout to not get in conflict with libidn 
which is at 1.x.

The project now switched to Gitlab which btw is a great collaboration tool.
Savannah's libidn git repository is kept in sync with Gitlab.

The upload to alpha.gnu.org currently doesn't work out for us, so we offer the 
tarballs + signature also at Gitlab.


* Version 2.0.0 (released 2017-03-29) [alpha]

** Version numbering scheme changed

** Added to ASCII conversion functions corresponding to libidn1 functions:
    - idn2_to_ascii_4i
    - idn2_to_ascii_4z
    - idn2_to_ascii_8z
    - idn2_to_ascii_lz

** Added to unicode conversion functions corresponding to libidn1 functions:
    - idn2_to_unicode_8z4z
    - idn2_to_unicode_4z4z
    - idn2_to_unicode_44i
    - idn2_to_unicode_8z8z
    - idn2_to_unicode_8zlz
    - idn2_to_unicode_lzlz

** The idn2 manual page is generated from markdown text instead of utilizing
   help2man on the generated tool.

** Including idn2.h will provide libidn1 compatibility functions
   unless IDN2_SKIP_LIBIDN_COMPAT is defined. That allows converting
   applications from libidn1 (which offers IDNA2003) to libidn2 (which
   offers IDNA2008) by replacing idna.h to idn2.h in the applications'
   source.

** API and ABI is backwards compatible with the previous version.
