ANNOUNCE: p11-kit 0.22.0

Announcing a new release of p11-kit. This is a stable release (at least
that's the idea :)

The 0.22.x series focuses on remoting PKCS#11. Not all the various
types of remoting are implemented yet, but the basic logic is in place.

These changes occurred over the course of the 0.21.x series, and 0.22.x
releases will have minor bug fixes and stabilization.


What's new in 0.22.x
--------------------

 * Add 'remote' option to run a PKCS#11 module in another process or
   on another machine.
 * Install a new public pkcs11x.h header containing extensions
 * Use secure_getenv() where necessary
 * Use term 'attached extensions rather than 'stapled extensions'
 * Show public-key-info in 'trust list --details'
 * Fix racy and deadlock prone use of pthread_atfork()
 * Lots of build fixes

Many thanks to everyone who contributed with review, patches and testing :)
