This release is primarily a bugfix release that contains some rather critical bugfixes which affect Windows and 64-bit platforms.

Critical changes:

giftd 0.11.7:

* Filter LOCATE requests so that they are not delivered to protocol plugins which do not have a registered hash handler for the hash type being searched for.

* Preserve extension when renaming downloaded files because the file name is already used.

* Removed requirement for state files having leading dot on Windows.

* Fixed bug which prevented completed dir from being shared if no sharing root was set.

* Added meta data extraction for bittorrent files.

* Added check to not share incoming dir if not specifically allowed by config.

* Fixed some bugs which could lead to shares db corruption.

* Added saving of download paused state across restarts.

libgift 0.11.7:

* Fixed VA_COPY bug in strobj which led to crashes on AMD64 (possibly other platforms?)

* Fixed fd leak in platform_child() implementation.

* Fixed a bug where we possibly send SIGTERM to random processes in platform_cleanup().
