The "JESUS CHRIST IT'S A LION GET IN THE CAR!" release.

This release starts a 0.4.x stable branch with conservative dependencies.
The next release from the 'master' branch will be 0.5.0, and will depend on
newer versions of GLib, telepathy-glib and libpurple; in particular, 0.5.x
won't be suitable for use on Maemo 5.

Haze is a Telepathy connection manager based on libpurple, allowing Telepathy
applications to connect to the protocols supported by Pidgin. For protocols
that have a more specific connection manager (e.g. telepathy-gabble for XMPP),
we recommend using that instead.

Dependencies:

 • libpurple ≥ 2.6 is now required

   telepathy-glib 0.9.2 and GLib 2.22

Fixes:

 • fd.o #23702: use uint16 for port numbers, and be permissive about
   minor type variations in what we're actually given (wjt)
