We've a problem in supporting [i]rmacro, exitmacro
facilities at moment.
In a sake of not holding new NASM release any longer these
directives are just marked as being "forbidden".
This allow us to not squash much changes in current source
code base but remain on a safe side same time.

We always allocate enough memory to hold identifiers
with any length. So lets remove restriction from
documentation.

Fix case where \\ needs to be written as \\\\ in order to appear as a
double backslash. Also add mention of release candidates and
snapshots.

It isn't just invalid UTF-8 sequences that are affected; it is in fact
any high-bit bytes (we don't ever try to construct UTF-8 characters,
just deconstruct them.)

Revert to original %+ behavior. This is what we really wanted in the
first place, except this time we have fixed some bugs.

Update user-visible changes so far. Since I consider the license
change alone to be big enough of a deal to justify a "real" version
number, make this version 2.07.

We seem to use the term "extensions" to mean anything that is specific
to an object format, so continue to do so.

Add support for directly generating Intel hex or Motorola S-records.
These formats are commonly used with ROM burners.

This adds copyright verbiage to the Perl scripts. Scripts that are
known to be clean w.r.t. the 2-clause BSD license are given that
license; unclear ones are given the "LGPL for now".

Move backend-specific code into the output/ directory, and make the
null debugging backend a separate file (it certainly isn't needed for
ndisasm...)

Eliminiate hard-coded section numbers, at least to the best of our
ability. There is still a very odd piece of computation in
elf_build_reltab() which I can't really figure out...

Add something approaching real ELF header files.
Begin merging the common ELF code, beginning with the section name
detection.
Drop automatic generation of .comment section, and in particular the
treatment of .common as a special section (if we decide generating
.comment is still a good idea, we should just do it as a macro.)
Augment the list of known sections, and make it table-driven.
