Major changes in 0.8.4
======================
In addition to the regular list of bugfixes this stable release
include backports of one more feature required for making OpenGL work
well. Now extra-data using extensions (such as the nvidia driver) can
specify that it doesn't need a runtime to run its apply script. We use
this in the nvidia driver by making the script a static binary, which
lets us use the nvidia driver for multiple runtimes without requering
that a particular one is installed. We also support an extension point
supporting multiple versions, which will be use for sharing the
nvidia driver between different runtime versions.
Additional fixes:
* Documentation fixes
* Crash fixes
* Fix xauth propagation in some cases
* Don't remove origin remotes on uninstall if some other app
is installed from it.
* Don't reset what locales are installed when updating a locale
extension
* Disable splice for the documentation portal as it seems
to be broken in fuse
* Append, don't override XDG_DATA_DIRS in profile script
* Fix progress reporting in libflatpak to go from 0 to
100% once, merging the various phases.
