+v1.2.0
+ -- A huge refactoring of the library happened - renaming,
+ deprecating and replacing existing functions by improved API's.
+
+ All deprecated functions, macros and symbols are only marked as such
+ so this version is still API and ABI compatible to v1.x.
+
+ -- Daniel Mendler was pushing for those changes and contributing a load of patches,
+ refactorings, code reviews and whatnotelse.
+ -- Christoph Zurnieden re-worked internals of the library, improved the performance,
+ did code reviews and wrote documentation.
+ -- Francois Perrad did some refactoring and took again care of linting the sources and
+ provided all fixes.
+ -- Jan Nijtmans, Karel Miko and Joachim Breitner contributed various patches.
+
+ -- Private symbols can now be hidden for the shared library builds, disabled by default.
+ -- All API's follow a single code style, are prefixed the same etc.
+ -- Unified, safer and improved API's
+ -- Less magic numbers - return values (where appropriate) and most flags are now enums,
+ this was implemented in a backwards compatible way where return values were int.
+ -- API's with return values are now by default marked as "warn on unsused result", this
+ can be disabled if required (which will most likely hide bugs), c.f. MP_WUR in tommath.h
+ -- Provide a whole set of setters&getters for different primitive types (long, uint32_t, etc.)
+ -- All those primitive setters are now optimized.
+ -- It's possible to automatically tune the cutoff values for Karatsuba&Toom-Cook
+ -- The custom allocators which were formerly known as XMALLOC(), XFREE() etc. are now available
+ as MP_MALLOC(), MP_REALLOC(), MP_CALLOC() and MP_FREE(). MP_REALLOC() and MP_FREE() now also
+ provide the allocated size to ease the usage of simple allocators without tracking.
+ -- Building is now also possible with MSVC 2015, 2017 and 2019 (use makefile.msvc)
+ -- Added mp_decr() and mp_incr()
+ -- Added mp_log_u32()
+ -- Improved prime-checking
+ -- Improved Toom-Cook multiplication
+ -- Removed the LTM book (`make docs` now builds the user manual)
