* The --json flag now takes a version number as an optional
parameter. The default will remain version 1 for compatibility.
This enables future code to use --json=latest to always get the
latest version or to use a specific version. At this time, there's
only version 1, but a version 2 may appear in a future qpdf.
* Major refactor: all functionality from the qpdf CLI is now
available for library users using the QPDFJob class. See comments
in include/qpdf/QPDFJob.hh and a new chapter about QPDFJob in the
manual. QPDFJob provides fluent interfaces for setting options
that exactly map to command-line arguments. There are also methods
for initializing QPDFJob from an argv array and from a JSON
object.
* A light C API around basic QPDFJob functionality is in
include/qpdf/qpdf-job-c.h.p
* Add new functions version of QUtil::call_main_from_wmain that
takes a constant argv array.

* Major overhaul of documentation and help for the qpdf
command-line tool. qpdf --help is now broken into topics rather
than being one great wall of text, and the command-line arguments
are indexed in the manual. The entire text of the "Running qpdf"
chapter has been reviewed thoroughly. Many thanks once again to
M. Holger for a detailed review and editorial assistance with the
manual.
* Bug fix: add missing characters from PDF doc encoding.
Fixes #606.
