[Announcing n. v. of L. <lmo...@li...>]

I am happy to announce that Lmod 8.7 has been released.  This version is
mainly a series of bug fixes from Lmod 8.6 but there are some changes that
need to be made clear w.r.t. Lmod 8.7.

The big changes are four things:

   1. An unload cannot fail.  That is if unloading a module would have been
   an error before, it is now a warning.  This means that a "bad" module can
   be unloaded.
   2. A bare TCL break statement (or a LmodBreak in lua) in a modulefile
   does nothing on unload.
   3. A TCL `puts stdout "..."' will produce its output at the end of the
   modulefile rather than the beginning of the modulefile.  This now matches
   the behavior of Tmod 4.1
   4. A TCL 'puts prestdout "..."' will produce its output at the beginning
   of the modulefile.  This now matches Tmod 5.1
