This release makes a few small changes to allow for even tighter security:
The new -fork-on-lock command line flag allows for race-condition-free suspend
after the screen has been locked.
Furthermore, all sensitive memory used by waylock is now better protected from paging
to disk or inclusion in core dumps with hints to the operating system.
