In this release, the blosc_compress() and blosc_decompress() interfaces
are now fork-safe, preventing child-process deadlocks in fork-based
multiprocessing applications. These interfaces with BLOSC_NOLOCK were, and
continue to be, fork-safe. _ctx interface context reuse continues to be
unsafe in the child process post-fork. Thanks to Alex Ford.
Also, a few bugs have been fixed, more compatibility with oldish compilers
and LZ4 and Zstd codecs have been updated to their latest versions.
