arabluatex v1.10.2:
This update is a follow-up to v.1.10 which was as follows:

Arabic proper names consisting of several subsequent words. See the
documentation on p. 33.
- New command \prname{} for Arabic proper names to be inserted in
running English text in the same typeface as the surrounding text.
v1.10.2:
- 'ibn' should not be uppercased unless the preceding proper name be
missing.
- correction of a few typos.
