Release notes for 2.52 -- 2021-08-01 17:49:56 -0700

* Revived -std=c89 compilation for make all etc. 

* The shared library objects: pam_cap.so, libcap.so and libpsx.so, 
  are all now runnable as standalone binaries!

  * The support is used to display some description information.
  * To activate it, these binaries need to be installed executable 
    (chmod +x ...)
  * We also provided a write-up of how to enable this sort of 
    feature in other .so files here.

* The module pam_cap.so now contains support for a 
  default=<IAB> module argument.

* Enhanced capsh --suggest to also compare against the capability 
  value names and not just their descriptions.

* Added capsh --current support.

* Minor documentation updates.

* Added a contrib/sucap/su.c pure-capabilities PAM 
  implementation of su.
   * This is primarily to demonstrate that such a thing is possible, 
     and to validate that the pam_cap.so module is capable of adding 
     any IAB tuple of inheritables per group or user.
   * At this time, it relies on features only present in this version 
     of libcap and HEAD of the Linux-PAM sources for the pam_unix.so 
     module."	enhancement	closed	normal	11.0	Book	git	normal	fixed
