Features
--------

- Queue messages shown in unfocused windows and show them when the
  window is focused. This can be disabled by setting the new option
  ui -> message-unfocused.
- New --relaxed-config argument which ignores unknown options (mainly
  intended for debugging).
- New -R/--override-restore argument to not load a session even if one
  was saved.

Improvements
------------

- Clear rejected SSL questions when reloading page.
- Always open URLs given as argument in the foreground.
- Use state file to record which session to load instead of deleting
  the default session.

Bugfixes
--------

- Workaround for Qt recording URLs to the icon database even when in
  private mode, see the release annoucement[1] for details.
- Remove colors -> completion.item.bg option which wasn't used
  anywhere.
- Fix for starting qutebrowser via IPC without an URL not working as
  expected.
- Handle unencodable file paths in config types correctly.
- Fix for stray about:blank tabs opening on some pages.
- Fix for crash when executing a delayed command (because of a
  shadowed keybinding) and then unfocusing the window.
- Fix for crash when hinting on a page which doesn't have an URL yet.
- Handle statusbar messages before a window appears correctly.

Under the hood
--------------

- Simplify distro package output in earlyinit.py.
- Rename doc/HACKING.asciidoc to CONTRIBUTING.asciidoc so GitHub shows
  it when creating issues/PRs.
- Various small updates to CONTRIBUTING.
- Reenable some pylint checks which caused issues in older versions.
- Enable python warnings earlier and even without --debug.
- Add some logging for javascript messages.
