This release is mainly to fix a regression for -nntpd affecting
neomutt and possibly other NNTP clients.

There is also ongoing work to integrate coderepo handling into
the codebase and the idea of `lei p2q' is integrated into the
WWW UI.

Upgrading:

  lei users need to "lei daemon-kill" after installation to load
  new code.  Normal daemons (read-only, and public-inbox-watch)
  will also need restarts, of course, but there's no
  backwards-incompatible data format changes so rolling back to
  older versions is harmless.

  * improve display of git tags, commits and trees in $INBOX/$OID/s/ endpoint
