* Allow using multiple temporary Xapian indexes and a final merge. This
is useful for cases where the single-threaded Xapian index updates
would be the indexing speed bottleneck, which would typically happen
with simple input like HTML files. In such a case it can bring a huge
speedup of indexing, e.g. 3X on a 4 Core CPU.
* New meson-based build method. The autotools files are still there,
and work, but they will be removed in a future release.
* New AppImage executable single file image available on the web
site. This should work on all reasonably recent Linux distributions
(ref: Debian Buster).
* KDE KF6 support for the KIO slave and KRunner.
* GUI User interface preferences tab is now scrollable. It was too high
for some displays.
* Joplin indexer: also index OCR'd text from attached images.
* MacOS: index the Finder tags and comments.
* Use simdutf (https://github.com/simdutf/simdutf), for faster Unicode
conversions (mainly during diacritics removal).
* Linux: now default to using libmagic instead of executing file/xdg-mime
to find out MIME types.
