[dnsdist] Second release candidate for dnsdist 1.5.0

[Remi Gacogne]

Hello everyone,

We are very happy to announce the second release candidate of dnsdist
1.5.0. 1.5.0 contains several new exciting features and a few breaking
changes since 1.4.0 that were detailed in the announcement of alpha1
[1]. If you upgrade from 1.4.0, please see the upgrade guide [2] for
more information.

This new release candidate has very few changes except a few minor bug
fixes and cleanups since the first release candidate:

- compilation was broken on SmartOS/illumos, and Solaris (9031) ;
- the statistics for HTTP/1 were displayed twice instead of showing the
HTTP/2 ones (9068) ;
- if a backend was not reachable when first added, and multiple sockets
were configured for that backend, the corresponding socket was not
properly closed (9057) ;
- several minor compilation warnings were fixed, along with some minor
cleanups (9016 9042 9053 9054 9059 9067 9078 9084).

We want to once again thank everyone that contributed to the testing of
alpha1 and the first release candidate!

Please see the dnsdist website [3] for the more complete changelog [4]
and the current documentation.

Release tarballs are available on the downloads website [5].

Several packages are also available in our repository [6]. Please be
aware that we have enabled a few additional features in our packages,
like DNS over HTTPS, DNS over TLS and DNSTAP support, on distributions
where the required dependencies were available.
