This release brings many new filters, adapts a few existing filters to behave more like in original jq, and squashes a few bugs.
New filters
My personal highlight for this release is the new repl filter. It allows you to capture the current input and run different filters interactively.
Apart from this, a few new filters from upstream jq are now available in jaq. Thanks to @dnelson-1901 and @wader for contributing!

Behaviour changes
This release changes the behaviour of the recursion operator .. in updates: Previously, this operator could easily cause infinite loops if the right-hand side of an update with .. would produce a value that could be iterated over, such as an array or an object. With this release, this is now avoided, by performing .. updates from the leafs to the root instead of from the root to the leafs.
