Overview of changes for 0.8.0
=============================
* Remove the in-tree Vala bindings: they are part of Vala, now
* Remove the in-tree Debian packaging
* Fix bug #958: JsonGenerator does not escape special characters
* Fix bug #965: Conditionally compile the test suite
* Display the filename and line inside the error messages when
loading from a file
* Fix bug #1203: Correctly terminate a string array
* Fix bug #1393: Regression tests fail on OpenBSD
* Do not leak memory on error code paths
* Improve and clean up the build system

and json-gobject.h can be included directly
* Documentation fixes
* Clean up and remove code duplication inside the Parser object
This changes the buildlink3.mk files to use an include guard for the
recursive include. The use of BUILDLINK_DEPTH, BUILDLINK_DEPENDS,
BUILDLINK_PACKAGES and BUILDLINK_ORDER is handled by a single new
variable BUILDLINK_TREE. Each buildlink3.mk file adds a pair of
enter/exit marker, which can be used to reconstruct the tree and
to determine first level includes. Avoiding := for large variables
(BUILDLINK_ORDER) speeds up parse time as += has linear complexity.
The include guard reduces system time by avoiding reading files over and
over again. For complex packages this reduces both %user and %sys time to
half of the former time.
JSON-GLib is a library providing serialization and deserialization support for
the JavaScript Object Notation (JSON) format described by RFC 4627
JSON-GLib uses GLib native data types and the generic value container GValue for
ease of development. It also provides integration with the GObject classes for
direct serialization into, and deserialization from, JSON data streams.
