Log message:
Update to 1.8

Upstream changes:
1.8  Thu Dec 17 02:23:53 CET 2020
        - no bugfixes in this release due to lack of known bugs, but the major \ 
changes
          in this release might have introduced new bugs, so watch out.
        - update large decoder example to disable OPT_AUTOCHK and use Smerge -1.
        - some micro-optimisations.
        - avoid costly string comparisons by comparing hashes when isnerting items,
          which speeds up insertion by a constant factor.
        - improve uulist (and other) structure layout and size.
        - reverse the order of file list items, which heuristically improves
          match speed with large usenet file lists.
        - use getc instead of fgetc, which makes no difference on gnu/linux.
        - clean up _FP symbol names toi not start with an underscore.
        - use feof_unlocked and ferror_unlocked.
        - implement a faster ascii-only strnicmp.
        - misc very minor code improvements.
        - remove quite a bit of pre-posix/dos/etc. cruft.
        - use flockfile, if available, for a potential but small
          speed gain.
        - speed up inner yenc decoder loop.
        - kentnl said that this module should no longer claim to be a simple
          interface to uulib, as the bunndled copy is now better maintained
          than the original upstream library.

converters: Replace RMD160 checksums with BLAKE2s checksums

All checksums have been double-checked against existing RMD160 and
SHA512 hashes

Log message:
p5-Convert-UUlib: update to 1.710.

1.71 Tue Mar 17 00:54:06 CET 2020
	- backport to c89 (patch by Paul Howarth).

1.7  Sat Feb 29 22:07:54 CET 2020
	- new function: GetFileList.
	- experimental perlmulticore support (see manpage).
        - Initialize is now a NOP and CleanUp automatically initializes again.
        - updated example decoder and documentation a bit.
	- include ecb.h to deal with compiler builtins and endianness.
	- some further ยต-optimisations in hot code, especially for yEnc.
        - replace crc32 function by slice-by-16 version by Stephan Brumme,
          which should speed up yEnc en-/decoding.
        - yEnc: do not calculate two crcs per part, instead, combine
          the part crcs together to form the file crc.
        - yEnc: allow pcrc= in addition to pcrc32= for yenc trailers, as
          some draft mentions both and it is actually in active use.
        - yEnc: ignore crc32= on multiparts, except on the last part,
          which avoids spurious corruption warnings.
        - be more precise in documenting code licenses in COPYING.
        - convert constant creation to the method I normally use.
        - use common::sense.

1.62 Mon Feb 17 23:19:42 CET 2020
	- major performance improvement by simplifying code in _FP_gets
          to not use fscanf. This might slow things down on platforms
          with very slow fgetc.

1.61 Sun Feb  9 18:38:29 CET 2020
	- lint uulib: fix some format string type mismatches
          and some other minor issues.

1.6  Thu Oct 24 17:11:54 CEST 2019
	- fix heap overflow (testcase by Noel Duffy, reported
          by Robert Scheck). The defense-in-depth mechanism based
          on mmap should make this unexploitable for other than denial
          of service, on systems supporting mmap/mprotect.
