==========
* Fixed a bug in the check command when detecting garbage data over the
expected end of the file. No special action is required to update.
expected end of the file.
The parity data was anyway computed correctly, and no special action is
required to update.
* Changed the default checksum to Murmur3 hash. It's a lot faster than MD5.
You can check its speed with the "snapraid -T" command.
MD5 is still supported for backward compatibility.
To convert to the new Murmur3 hash, simply remove the 'content' file,
and start a new whole 'sync'.
* Added RAID6 support. It's used the very good RAID6 library made by H. Peter Anvin
also used in the Linux Kernel. It contains optimized implementations for SSE2
and MMX.
* Added support for multiple 'content' files. You can save extra copy to be able
to verify the checksums also if you lose all the 'content' files in the parity
drives.

* Added a filtering include logic, where anything not explicitely included
is excluded. For example, it allow to include only the files in a predefined
set of directories.
