Summary of changes from 3.001 - 3.002
- Encoder: Introduce "canonical" option to encoder
- Encoder: Introduce "canonical_refs" option to encoder
- Decoder: Introduce "set_readonly" option to decoder
- Decooder: Introduce "set_readonly_scalars" option to decoder
* Decoder Bug fixes
- Fix assertion fails in DEBUG perls (Brian Fraser)
- Fix segfault with "into" interface when decoding references and
strings into the same target SV. See new test t/550_decode_into.t
* Test Infra Changes
- Split up bulk tests to speed up testing and make it easier
to see when a failure is restricted to a specific option.
* Big-Endian Support
- Improved support for Big-Endian machines. We now build and pass test
on Sparc and HP-UX and other platforms with big-endian or strict
alignedness requirements. Much thanks to Jarkko Hietaniemi,
Gregor Herrmann, and H. Merijn Brand for for their assistance with
this.
- We still have issues with s390x (Z/Os) with Sereal. If someone wants
to help it would be appreciated.
3.001

- Zlib support
- CANONICAL_UNDEF,
