Besides some bug fixes and library improvements, I want to highlight the
following changes:
* Upgraded to Unicode 15.1
* Fix some xmlns that were accidentally changed to https
* Improved the printing of shortest decimal representation of floating-point
numbers.
* Some early support for ARM64 in the non-optimizing compiler, more to do for
full support.
* Automatic light/dark theme detection works on Microsoft Windows.
* Support for compressed images, useful when reducing file size is important.
Some possible backwards compatibility issues:
* ui: focusable-child* now returns f to indicate parent should be focused
* peg: change to compile-time PEG: and PARTIAL-PEG: forms, not delay to first
invocation
* system: renamed macosx to macos
* math.trig: moved deg>rad and rad>deg to math.functions vocabulary
* math.functions: fix divisor? to support mixed numbers (floats and integers)
* math.functions.integer-logs: moved integer-log10 and integer-log2 to
math.functions vocabulary
* ranges: fixed exclusive range to be more correct for float, ratio, etc.
* http.client: moved some download words to http.download vocabulary
* rosetta-code: moved solutions to the factor-rosetta-code git repository
* json: read-json returns a single object, use read-jsons to read multiple
* base32: now contains all of the words from the base32-crockford and
base32hex vocabularies
