It's finally release o'clock, and this time around the focus has been on
improving quality. As it's been a while since the last time we upgraded our
third-party dependencies, and I found myself tracking down a memory-leak in GLib
that had already been fixed upstream, I figured it was time to upgrade our
dependencies. So with this release I'm happy to announce that we're now packing
the latest V8, GLib, Vala compiler, etc. Great care was also taken to eliminate
resource leaks, so you can attach to long-running processes without worrying
about memory allocations or OS handles piling up.

So in closing, let's summarize the changes:

7.3.0:

- core: upgrade to the latest V8, GLib, Vala, Android NDK, etc.
- core: plug resource leaks
- core: fix thread enumeration on Linux/x86-32
- core: (arm64) improve function hooking by adding support for relocating LDRPC
        with an FP/SIMD destination register

Enjoy!
