New minor version.

[Bruce Dubbs]

Changes for APR 1.7.0

• apr_dir_read: [Unix] Dropped the preference of the dirread_r() flavor for dirread(), because the former is both deprecated and unneeded.

• apr_file_info: [Win32 only] Treat only "name surrogate" reparse points as symlinks, and not other reparse tag types.

• Test %ld vs. %lld to avoid compiler emits using APR_OFF_T_FMT, in the case of apparently equivilant long and long long types.

• Recognize APPLE predefined macros as equivilant to DARWIN.

• Signals: Allow handling of SIGUSR2 in apr_signal_thread.

• Atomics: Support for 64bit ints.

• Add the apr_encode_* API that implements RFC4648 and RFC7515 compliant BASE64, BASE64URL, BASE32, BASE32HEX and BASE16 encode/decode functions.

• rand: Use arc4random_buf() on BSD platforms and getrandom() on Linux, when available.

• Add apr_sockaddr_zone_set, apr_sockaddr_zone_set to set and retrieve the zone for link-local IPv6 addresses.

• apr_sockaddr_equal: Compare link-local IPv6 addresses with different zones as not equal.

• apr_sockaddr_ip_getbuf, apr_sockaddr_ip_get: Append "%zone" for IPv6 link-local addresses.

• Locks: add a --disable-timedlocks config option in case users encounter more platforms where it fails

• apr_allocator, apr_pools: Add apr_allocator_page_size() and apr_allocator_min_order_set() to respectively get the (system's) page size in use and set the minimum allocation size for an allocator (expressed in 2^{order pages).}

• locks: provide portable implementations of timedlock()s for posix-sems, sysv-sems and pthreads for those platforms that lack native versions (eg: OSX/macOS).

• locks: Introduce apr_{thread,proc,global}_mutex_timedlock().
