IO::FITS no longer writes COMMENT header with "HASH(0x...)"
add IO::GD::write_gif_anim for better GIF animation in Demos/harness
IO::HDF remove VNAMELENMAX and Vinquire as obsoleted by recent HDF4 (#500) - thanks @a-shahba for report
IO::FlexRaw::mapflex stop allocating memory (#501) - thanks @vitstradal for report
add Primitive::approx_artol
get_dataref now works even with DONTTOUCHDATA which is really about allocation
