Changelog:
=========
Notes:
* Due to a past mistake, AppStream until now assumed xml:lang was
using POSIX locale, while in fact XML locale need to be in BCP47 format.
Most of the translation tools do this correctly, but notably msgfmt
when used in batch mode doesn't (which affects anything using Meson's
i18n module). AppStream is now behaving according to spec, with some
fallback code in place, but please check your XML is translated
correctly to ensure all translations are visible.
Features:
* Add API for asking whether the pool is empty
* Add DDE to known desktop-environment list
* validator: Check if Release Description is inside description tag
* Make AppStream use BCP47 for locale in XML data
Bugfixes:
* Add missing standard::is-hidden attribute to file search enumerator
* spdx: Accept brackets in spdx license expression check
* introspection: Bring back AS_FORMAT_STYLE_COLLECTION into its enum
* compose: Fix crash in asc_l10n_search_translations_qt()
* compose: Set lower-cased CID for synthesized components again
* Don't crash when non-YAML documents are read as YAML
Miscellaneous:
* sanitizers: Allow null-dereference check again
