v1.0 (2024-12-21)

The parser has been updated to the final newest version of the KDLv2 spec
- multi-line strings now use """ instead of "
- slashdash behaviour has been harmonized
- line continuations are now allowed everywhere
kdl_unescape_v now applies the single-line-string rules for KDLv2; use kdl_unescape_multi_line for multi-line rules.

Bug fixed:

The byte-order-mark U+FEFF (“the BOM”) is now treated as whitespace, as required by the KDLv1 spec (#8).

Enhancement:

The parser and emitter now support the draft KDLv2 spec if you explicitly enable this in the options:
- in C, pass KDL_DETECT_VERSION (for hybrid mode) or KDL_READ_VERSION_2 (for v2 only) as a parse option to kdl_create_*_parser(), and set the version attribute of the struct kdl_emitter_options when creating the emitter.
- in C++, parse() and to_string() now take an optional argument of type KdlVersion.
- in Python, the parse() function and the EmitterOptions both take an optional argument version.
- the command line tools ckdl-cat and ckdl-parse-events take options -1 and -2 to specify the KDL version.

Deprecations:

The string escaping functions kdl_escape and kdl_unescape are deprecated. Use kdl_escape_v and kdl_unescape_v instead (the *_v functions allow you to pass the KDL version).

Bug fixed:

Enhancement:

kdlpp now can now be built as a shared library (so/dylib/DLL). (#2, #3; thanks to Artemis Everfree).
This comes with the same caveat as for libkld: on Windows, you must define KDLPP_STATIC_LIB when you're linking statically before including <kdlpp.h>.

Bugs fixed:
