A new major pixman release 0.20.0 is now available. Highlights of this
release:

* Gradient improvements
  - Radial gradients follow the PDF specification [Andrea Canciani]
  - Large linear gradients are rendered much more accurately [Andrea]
  - Conical gradients now work much better [Søren Sandmann Pedersen]

* Performance improvements
  - Faster image scaling [Siarhei Siamashka]
  - Faster affine transformations [Søren]
  - Improvements to the ARM NEON [Siarhei]
  - Improvements to the SSE2 backend [Siarhei, Søren]

Plus a large number of bug and portability fixes, and improvements to
the test suite.

Thanks to everybody who contributed to pixman 0.20.0, including Andrea
Canciani, Benjamin Otte, Brad Smith, Dmitri Vorobiev, Jeff Muizelaar,
