- Update to v1.5.1:
  * Bug fixes:
  - relax gpiod_chip_open() for symbolic links
- Update to v1.5:
  * New features:
  - switched to using the GLib testing framework for core library tests and BATS
    (Bash Automated Testing System) for command-line tools
  - used Catch2 C++ testing framework to implement a proper test-suite for C++
    bindings while also reusing the API provided by libgpiomockup
  - used Python's unittest package to implement a proper test suite for Python
    bindings and reused libgpiockup again
  - provided line::update() and Line.update() routines for C++ and Python
    bindings respectively allowing to update the line info from bindings as well
  - added support for bias flags which are a new functionality first available in
    linux v5.5; subsequently the library now requires v5.5 kernel headers to
    build; the new flags are supported in the core library, C++ and Python
    bindings as well as the command-line tools
  - added support for the new SET_CONFIG ioctl(): this too is a new functionality
    added in linux v5.5; both features have been implemented in the library by
    Kent Gibson
  - added routines for reading multiple line events at once to the core library,
    C++ and Python bindings
  * Improvements:
  - constified function arguments where applicable in libgpiomockup
  - fixed the name of the test exeucutable displayed at build time
  - improved the function pointer casting in Python bindings to avoid warnings
    emitted by GCC8
  - switched to using the KERNEL_VERSION() macro in tests instead of handcoded
    version parsing
  - improved the setup ordering in tests (setup libgpiomockup before checking
    the kernel version
  - add 'extern "c"' to the libgpiomockup header to make it usable from C++
  - add chip index validation to libgpiomockup functions
  - check if the debugfs directory used by libgpiomockup is writable before
    using it to set the pull of dummy lines
  - add several new test cases
  - improved Python example programs (made gpiomon's output similar to the
    original tool, make gpioset wait for an ENTER pres by default)
  - fixed the major:minor number comparison between the device and sysfs
  - deprecated the gpiod_line_needs_update() function and removed the logic
    behind it from the library
  - shrank the Python bindings a bit by directly returning the value from
    PyErr_SetFromErrno()
  - dropped noexcept from methods which can throw in C++ bindings
  - switched to initializing the bitset with integers instead of strings in C++
    bindings
  - allowed gpiod_line_set_value_bulk() to accept null pointers
  - when building Python bindings: check for the existence of python-config
  - improved the readability of help text messages for command-line tools
  - reworked the .gitignore file: added libtool scripts generated during
    cross-compilation and split the main .gitignore into several fine-grained
    files
  - fixed several misspellings
  - other minor tweaks and improvements
  * Bug fixes:
  - fixed memory leaks in libgpiomockup
  - fixed memory leaks in the testing framework
  - fixed a segfault in error path in tests
  - make gpioinfo show lines claimed by the kernel as used even if they have no
    named consumer
  - fixed the test cases validating the '--active-low' switch in gpiomon and
    the GPIOHANDLE_REQUEST_ACTIVE_LOW flag in the core library after a fix
    for incorrect behavior was merged in linux v5.2.7
  - stopped failing at init-time of libgpiomockup if gpio-mockup is already
    loaded
  - added a missing throw keyword in error path in C++ bindings
  - fixed a segfault in Python bindings when calling Line.request() without
    the consumer argument

    that are bundled with the release tarball
  - support a singular 'default_val' argument in Line.request() in python

  - gpiomon now supports line buffered output
  * Improvements:
  - tweaks to the C API documentation
  - treewide unification of the naming of local variables
  - extended helptest in gpioset (explanation of the way the character device
    works aimed at reducing user confusion when a GPIO line reverts to its
    default value after gpioset exits)
