Full Changelog: v2.0.0-alpha...v2.0.0

v2.0.0-alpha

After 352 commits, this second release includes:

• Target Pharo 11, whose VM v0.9.21 provides all our requirements on graphic library dependencies. This greatly simplifies install instructions both for humans and CI jobs.
• Cairo: cover API considerably better (180 functions).
• Harfbuzz: new library with FFI bindings introduced
• FreeType: fix related to 26dot6 format
• Canvas:
  • fixed clipping of nested figures
  • rewrite part of the API
• All FFI bindings:
  • Now 222 functions are implemented
  • remove unnecessary 'prim' prefix
  • use 'unowned' prefix for ffi calls that return an object that must be destroyed by called
• Shadow filters: Introduce Fast Gaussian and Gradient
• Add some NewTools extensions that are convenient for inspecting main objects

The canvas API is still unstable, and could change significantly on next version. Moreover, the Alexandrie-Canvas package might fit better in Bloc-Alexandrie, and focus this project on the low-level.
There are segmentation fault crashes when loading in current Pharo 12 related to double frees, that must be debugged properly.
