Changes since version 0.3.4

  **NOTE**

  Version 0.4.0 introduces several breaking changes to API and wire
  format of management protocols

New features:

- (BREAKING CHANGE) LocalControlHeader for special signaling between
  application and NFD has been replaced with NDNLPv2 signaling
  (Issues 2879, 2930)
- NDNLPv2 Network NACK support in Face abstraction (Issue 2930)
- (BREAKING CHANGE) FacePersistency field added to API and wire format
  of ControlParameters abstraction (Issue 2991)
- (BREAKING CHANGE) NACK counters added to ForwarderStatus and
  FaceStatus datasets (Issue 3174)
- Backport C++14 std::make_unique (Issue 3093)
- Emulate std::to_string on platforms that do not provide it (Issue 2743)

Improvements and bug fixes:

- Fix bug causing failure of Face if there is a large delay between
  construction of Face and calling processEvents (Issues 2742, 2526)
- Cache Link object after the first call to getLink (Issue 3158)
- Minor documentation updates (Issues 3207, 3210, 3221)

Deprecated:

- Overloads of Face::registerPrefix and Face::setInterestFilter that
  do not accept SigningInfo parameter (Issue 2932)

Removed:

- Deprecated EventEmitter class (Issue 2351)

Planned features for future releases:

- Introduce new API to simplify security transformations (Issue 3009)
- NDN trust schema as a description of application trust model, which
  can help automate data and interest packet signing and
  authentication (Issue 2829)
- Refactored KeyChain abstraction (Issue 2926)
