This release includes the nearly three year old #106 (previously #51), which adds the full test suite of TagLib to Lofty. With the exception of a few (currently) unsupported formats and certain behaviors I don't want to replicate, Lofty now matches TagLib's behavior test for test. 🎉

This release mostly contains fixes. I had originally hoped to get Matroska/WebM support (#218) in here, but I don't have much time to work on Lofty at the moment.

This will likely be the last major release for awhile, but I'll still be around to respond to bugs or PRs.
