Text.Pandoc.ImageSize: Add Tiff constructor for ImageType (#7405) [Minor API change]. This allows pandoc to get size information from tiff images.

Markdown reader: don’t try to read contents in self-closing HTML tag. Previously we had problems parsing raw HTML with self-closing tags like <col/>. The problem was that pandoc would look for a closing tag to close the markdown contents, but the closing tag had, in effect, already been parsed by htmlTag.

LaTeX reader:

• Avoid trailing hyphen in translating languages (#7447). Previously \foreignlanguage{english} turned into <span lang="en-">. The same issue affected Arabic.
• Support \cline in LaTeX tables (#7442).
• Improved parsing of raw LaTeX from Text streams (rawLaTeXParser, used to read LaTeX in Markdown files, #7434). We now use source positions from the token stream to tell us how much of the text stream to consume. Getting this to work required a few other changes to make token source positions accurate.

DocBook reader:

• Handle images with imageobjectco elements (#7440).
• Add support for citerefentry (#7437, Jan Tojnar).

RST reader: fix regression with code includes (#7436). With the recent changes to include infrastructure, included code blocks were getting an extra newline.

HTML reader:

• Recognize data-external when reading HTML img tags (#7429, Michael Hoffmann). Preserve all attributes in img tags. If attributes have a data- prefix, it will be stripped. In particular, this preserves a data-external attribute as an external attribute in the pandoc AST.
• Add col, colgroup to ‘closes’ definitions

HTML writer:

• Remove duplicated alt text in HTML output (Aner Lucero).
• Remove aria-hidden when explicit alt text is provided (Aner Lucero).
• Set boolean values for reveal.js variables.

Docx writer:

• Add table numbering for captioned tables. The numbers are added using fields, so that Word can create a list of tables that will update automatically.
• Support figure numbers. These are set up in such a way that they will work with Word’s automatic table of figures (#7392).

Markdown writer: put space between Plain and following fenced Div (#4465).

EPUB writer: Don’t incorporate externally linked images in EPUB documents (#7430, Michael Hoffmann). Just as it is possible to avoid incorporating an image in EPUB by passing data-external="1" to a raw HTML snippet, this makes the same possible for native Images, by looking for an associated external attribute.

Text.Pandoc.PDF:

• Fix svgIn path error (#7431). We were duplicating the temp directory; this didn’t cause problems on macOS or linux because there we use absolute paths for the temp directory. But on Windows it caused errors converting SVG files.
• convertImage: normalize paths (#7431). This will avoid paths on Windows with mixed path separators.

Text.Pandoc.Class: Always use / when adding directory to image destination with extractMedia, even on Windows.

Text.Pandoc.Citeproc:

• Allow $ characters in bibtex keys (#7409).
• Set proper initial source name in parsing BibTeX (for better error messages.)
• Revamp note citation handling (#7394). Use latest citeproc, which uses a Span with a class rather than a Note for notes. This helps us distinguish between user notes and citation notes. Don’t put citations at the beginning of a note in parentheses. Fix small bug in handling of citations in notes, which led to commas at the end of sentences in some cases.
• Cleanup and efficiency improvement in deNote.
• Improve punctuation moving with --citeproc. Previously, using --citeproc could cause punctuation to move in quotes even when there aer no citations. This has been changed; punctuation moving is now limited to citations. In addition, we only move footnotes around punctuation if the style is a note style, even if notes-after-punctuation is true.

Use citeproc 0.10. This helps improve note citations (see above) and eliminates double hyperlinks in author-in-text citations. Author-only citations are no longer hyperlinked. See jgm/citeproc#77. It also fixes moving of punctuation inside quotes to conform to the CSL spec: only comma and period are moved, not question mark or exclamation point.

Text.Pandoc.Error: fix line calculations in reporting parsec errors. Also remove a spurious initial newline in the error report.

Use doctemplates 0.4.1, which gives us better support for boolean variable values. Previously $if(foo)$ would evaluate to true for variables with boolean false values, because it cared only about the string rendering (#7402).

Require commonmark-pandoc >= 0.2.2.1. This fixes task lists with multiple paragraphs.

Use skylighting 0.11.

CSS in HTML template: reset overflow-wrap on code blocks (Mauro Bieg, #7423).

LaTeX template: Revert change in PR #7295: “move title, author, date up to top of preamble.” The change caused problem for people who used LaTeX commands defined defined later in the preamble in the title or author fields (#7422).

Add doc/faqs.md. This is imported from the website; in the future the website version will be drawn from here. Added a FAQ on the use of \AtEndPreamble for cases when the contents of header-includes need to refer to definitions that come later in the preamble. See #7422.

Upgrade Debian 10 AMI for build-arm.sh.

CircleCI: change to using xcode 11.1.0 (macOS 10.14.4). We previously built on 10.13, but 10.13 no longer gets security updates and CirclCI is deprecating.
