- Update to version 20.08
  * Major security and quality improvements:
    + PcapPlusPlus was added to Google OSS-Fuzz which uses the
      Fuzz testing technique to discover security
      vulnerabilities and stability bugs
    + Created a new regression test suite for OSS-Fuzz bugfixes
      under Tests/Fuzzers/RegressionTests
    + Added LGTM integration to enable continuous code analysis
      and prevent critical vulnerabilities
    + More than 60 issues were found by OSS-Fuzz and LGTM and
      fixed in this release
    + Revamped Packet++Test and Pcap++Test: tests are now more
      structured, divided into multiple files and use common and
      more intuitive test infrastructure
    + Added a new test suite (written in Python) for
      PcapPlusPlus examples under Tests/ExamplesTests
  * Added DPDK 19.11 (LTS) support
  * New supported protocols:
    + BGP v4
    + IEEE 802.3 Ethernet
  * A complete rewrite of the IP address classes IPv4Address,
    IPv6Address and IPAddress to make them more efficient and
    easy to use
  * In addition, new features were added to IP address classes:
    + Added "less than" comparison operator
    + Added subnet match for IPv6Address
  * Performance optimization, readability improvements and code
    cleanup in various parts of the code
  * Integrated streaming ZStd compression for pcapng files
  * Pcap/pcapng files:
    + Read and write in nanoseconds precision for pcapng files
    + Enable flush for pcap and pcapng file writers
  * TCP reassembly returns status in every call to
    TcpReassembly::reassemblePacket()
  * Added port filter to HttpAnalyzer
  * Support for setting snapshot length in PcapLiveDevice
  * GeneralFilter::matchPacketWithFilter() can now match packet
    of any link type
  * Added user link types 147-162 to support custom protocols
  * Tons of bug fixes
