CHANGES:

New features:

• Add Eio.Process.Env (@patricoferris @talex5 @avsm #930 #923).
  You can use Eio.Process.environment to snapshot the current environment,
  modify it using Eio.Process.Env.override, then use it with Process.spawn ~env.

• Eio.Path: add ?follow arguments to open functions (@talex5 #938, requested by @samoht).
  Setting ~follow:false witll raise an exception rather than opening a symlink.

• Add Eio_unix.File module (@talex5 #937, reviewed by @avsm, requested by @samoht).
  Allows creating Eio files and flows from FDs.

Bug fixes:

• eio_windows: fix NT path handling and stat (@avsm #932, reviewed by @talex5, reported by @kentookura).
  Creating files with absolute paths resulted in a Unix.ENOENT error.
  Also, various other bugs in the Windows path handling were fixed.

Code cleanups and documentation:

• Add index.mld for eio (@talex5 @avsm #926).
  This provides a quick overview of the main eio library.
