* NEW: UNSAFE is a new keyword used in conjunction with FAST. It tells the JIT compiler not to do any safety check (null objects, division by zero, out of array bounds...). It makes the code a bit faster, but prone to segmentation fault.
[INTERPRETER]
* NEW: Support for the UNSAFE keyword.
[GB.JIT]
* NEW: Support for the UNSAFE keyword.
* NEW: Check validity of objects that can be invalid.

* NEW: JIT: Support for extern functions.
* NEW: Add a flag in Gambas functions to know if they are static or not.
[GB.JIT]
* NEW: Support for SUPER.
* NEW: Support for extern functions.
* BUG: Fix object arrays access.
* OPT: Optimization of Abs, Sgn, Int, Fix, and Pi subroutines.
[INTERPRETER]
* NEW: JIT: Support for event raising.
* BUG: Fix some bugs detected by clang.
[GB.JIT]
* NEW: Support for event raising.
* OPT: Some optimizations in jit code generation and compilation.
[INTERPRETER]
* BUG: JIT: Fix error handling when calling methods from JIT code.
[GB.JIT]
* NEW: Fix support of CATCH and FINALLY.
* NEW: Support for ON GOTO and ON GOSUB.
[GB.WEB]
* BUG: Fix the write of session values for sqlite sessions.
* NEW: Session.Path is a new property that returns the path of the file where the session is stored.

* NEW: JIT: Complex number support.
* NEW: JIT: LAST support.
[GB.JIT]
* BUG: Fix management of local variable declaration of translated functions.
* NEW: Support for WITH ... END WITH.
* NEW: JIT: Complex number support.
* NEW: JIT: LAST support.
[DEVELOPMENT ENVIRONMENT]
* NEW: Translation dialog: Add menu entries for copying string to the clipboard.
* NEW: Menu editor: Don't reserve space for top-level menu icons, as they don't have any icon.
[GB.GTK]
* NEW: Don't remove a control from its parent immediately when destroying it, so that GTK+ components behave like the QT ones.
[GB.GTK3]
* NEW: Don't remove a control from its parent immediately when destroying it, so that GTK+ components behave like the QT ones.
[INTERPRETER]
* NEW: The NEW implementation routine takes its opcode as argument now, like other subroutines with a variable number of arguments.
[GB.JIT]
* OPT: Call subroutines using their static address. No significative performance gain was detected.
* NEW: Support for CATCH and FINALLY.
[INTERPRETER]
* NEW: Support for error management in JIT methods.
[COMPILER]
* BUG: Fix Error() function metadata.
[GB.JIT]
* NEW: Support for error management.
* NEW: TRY instruction.
* BUG: Correct support of NULL.
Disable it for main as it's expected.

* OPT: String searching (Instr, RInstr and Replace) has been made about 4x faster by searching the first occurence with memchr() and memrchr().
[GB.FORM.TERMINAL]
* BUG: Fix warning messages.
[GB.JIT]
* BUG: Fix byte, short and boolean pushing and popping routines.
* BUG: Fix string values referencing.
* BUG: Fix optional argument management.
* NEW: Optimization of bits management subroutines.
[GB.QT4]
* BUG: Delay hooks initialization, because now socket notifiers must not be used before creating the event loop.
[GB.QT5]
* BUG: Delay hooks initialization, because now socket notifiers must not be used before creating the event loop.
[INTERPRETER]
* OPT: String routines are now compiled with -O3.
* NEW: Don't display JIT debugging message unless GB_JIT_DEBUG is set to something different from zero.
* NEW: String whose length is greater than 256 now have a growth step of 256 bytes instead of 16.
[GB.JIT]
* NEW: Do many global optimizations as now the class metadata is fully available.
* NEW: Support for optional argument. Still buggy at the moment.
