zxing-cpp: update to 2.2.1.

2.2.1

I accidentally broke c++ ABI compatibility between 2.1.0 and 2.2.0. This is \ 
fixed here. This release is only of relevance for package maintainers caring \ 
about ABI stability of MINOR version changes according to semantic versioning. \ 
None of the wrappers are effected by this change and hence will not be released \ 
as 2.2.1.

2.2.0

Major Changes

This release is mostly about the Python, Android and iOS wrappers. The latter 2 \ 
have changed considerably to have an API that is more in line with each other \ 
and with the core c++ library. The changes will most likely break existing app \ 
code but set a proper foundation for the future.

    Python:
        Multithreading Support via GIL by @billmccartney in #616
        Remove numpy requirement, use buffer protocol instead by @EchterAgo in #615
        Support sliced numpy arrays
        Expose return_errors parameter to Python wrapper APIs. by @gregtws in #618
        Expose Result::ecLevel method as python property by @marcoffee in #600
        Build wheels for Python 3.12. by @dainnilsson in #625

    Android:
        Android wrapper: Modernize build files by @okarmazin in #619
        Fix permissions on Android R+ by @markusfisch in #656
        Android wrapper improvements by @markusfisch in #659
        android: add consumerProguardFiles by @markusfisch in #660
        android: Fix build with NDK 26 by @michaelweghorn in #674
        Build with C++20 (improved DataMatrix detection) by default
        Don't close() the ImageProxy inside read() anymore, need to do that \ 
outside now (this breaks existing code)
        Change package name from com.zxingcpp to simply zxingcpp (breaking change)
        publish library on mavenCentral for lowest possible barrier of entry

    iOS/macOS:
        iOS Wrapper improvements by @benjohnde in #630
        iOS wrapper: Add functionality of encoding binary data into Barcodes by \ 
@alexmanzer in #635
        Rename ZXingCppWrapper to ZXingCpp by @alexmanzer in #638
        iOS: Enable CocoaPods by providing a podspec by @benjohnde in #637
        Build with C++20 (improved DataMatrix detection) by default
        ios: specify EC level/margin for generation by @markusfisch in #644
        ios: expose all native result items in wrapper by @markusfisch in #649
        ios: clean up ZXIDecodeHints by @markusfisch in #652
        ios: use a default error text instead of crashing by @markusfisch in #661
        ios: improve exception handling by @markusfisch in #664
        ios: rename ZXIDecodeHints to ZXIReaderOptions

    General:
        Rename DecodeHints to ReaderOptions. The old name is still available for \ 
backward API compatibility but deprecated. Since the C-API and the Qt wrapper \ 
code are not officially part of the library, they changed without backward \ 
compatibility.
        WASM: bytes in ReadResult by @Sec-ant in #588
        DataMatrix: use charset for encoding by @markusfisch in #628
        QRCode: Support QR Code Model1 by @sayzzy-nt in #633
        rMQR Code: Support Rectangular Micro QR Code by @gitlost in #681

Minor Changes and Fixes

    Fix QT 6 QML Crash & Enable QML Shape by @LeonnardoVerol in #597
    Python: Fix wrapper build on MSVC not having __cplusplus for BitHacks by \ 
@EchterAgo in #613
    Correctly handle supported image formats on Android APIs < 23 by \ 
@okarmazin in #622
    Add DecodeHints.setMaxNumberOfSymbols() to C API by @siiky in #665
    aztec: on decoding check for padding bits after B/S by @gitlost in #671

DecodeHints::tryDenoise feature, see 9bcfdb3)
    [EDIT: just noticed that this does not work, see 8202a4e]

@liulex in #476
    Android: Enable the saving of images to the phone gallery. by @Sergio- in #483
    WASM wrapper: add symbologyIdentifier into result by @AlexXiong-dev in #576

Log message:
zxing-cpp: update to 2.0.0.

The most visible change from the client perspective is the removal
of all formerly deprecated API, (almost) completing the 'cleanup'.
Since I was way too slow with this release to implement a 'cleanish'
SemVer release as discussed in #333, I decided to release this 2.0
with SONAME 3. A 3.0 release might bring the major version number
back in sync with the SONAME.

Major Changes

    switch to UTF8 based API and remove deprecated UTF16 one (Result::text())
    remove all API deprecated in 1.4
    Adding a wrapper for iOS by @parallaxe in #337
    new Aztec detector implementation to support arbitrary rotation and position \ 
of the symbol
    support multi-symbol detection in Aztec detector
    replace all Qt originated ECI/CharacterSet conversion code with a new \ 
implementation provided by @gitlost (libzueci)
    require c++17 to build library and client code
    new DecodeHints::textMode() and Result::text(TextMode) API to specify how \ 
bytes are rendered into text.
    HRI (human readable interpretation) is the new default for the TextMode (has \ 
been for most cases before, but not all)
    new DecodeHits::tryInvert() feature to test for inverted symbols (white on \ 
black background)

Minor Changes

    deprecate TextUtfEncoding helpers, not required anymore with UTF8 APIs for \ 
both reader and writer
    support for multi-symbol and arbitrary position detection of DataMatrix \ 
symbols when library is built with c++20
    Include version number of QR Code and DataMatrix in Result by @markusfisch \ 
in #396
    reduce size of Result struct by about a third
    cleanup all license related files (see removal of the Qt code above)
    update links and comments to refer to new github.com/zxing-cpp/zxing-cpp home
    improved Code128 decoder for over/underexposed images
    support python 3.11
    a whole bunch of fixes and minor improvements all over the place

Log message:
*: convert to cmake/build.mk

Log message:
zxing-cpp: Update to 1.4.0

* Install BitArray.h manually to fix misc/libreoffice build.

Changelog:
Note: this is an intermediary release on the way to 2.0. This code is (supposed
to be) API compatible (via the ReadBarcode.h interface) with v1.3.0 but
contains quite a few additional deprecations. It still has SO number 1, which
is as wrong as it was for release v1.3.0 and it is not ABI compatible with 1.3
either. 2.0 will be basically 1.4 but with all deprecated API removed and the
final fix for #333.

Main changes

  * Reader support for Micro QRCode by @corbers
  * prepared switch from std::wstring based utf16 to std::string based utf8
    results, use new ZX_USE_UTF8 macro to transition to the upcoming 2.0 API
  * much improved 'binary' data support via new Result::bytes() API, see #334
    for a detailed background discussion.
  * new Result::contentType() API returning information about the type of
    content (like text vs. binary, etc.)
  * better standards conformance with respect to ECI handling, see
    Results::bytesECI()
  * support for proper ECI handling across structured append symbols (see
    MergeStructuredAppendResults())
  * new Result::error() API with improved error handling, see also
    DecodeHints::returnErrors()
  * removed all internal header files from the installed set, so only the
    ReadBarcode.h based APIs are supported from here on out
  * removed all sample images from the 'source' distribution zip/tar balls
    (much reduced size)
  * python read_barcode returns None if no symbol was found (might break
    existing code if not checked for None before)

Minor changes

  * lots of little bug fixes
  * smaller per process runtime memory (thanks to @vkrause)
  * clang-13 and gcc-13 compilation fixes
  * ported Qt example code to Qt6
  * experimental multi-symbol detection support for DataMatrix when compiled
    with c++-20
  * fix error in multi-symbol detection of linear codes (sometimes reported 1
    symbol as 2)
  * new -bytes and -errors options in ZXingReader
  * support tryRotate for PDF417 symbols
