*** Changes

2.51.1:

This is the first release of the glibmm-2.52 API/ABI.
It installs in parallel with the gtkmm-2.4 API/ABI, of which
the most recent version is glibmm 2.50. We know that is a bit
confusing. We are taking the opportunity to do this glibmm ABI
break while GTK+ (and therefore gtkmm) is also doing an ABI
break. But we cannot call this glibmm-3.0 because there is no
glib 3.0.

Build:
* Require C++14.
  (Murray Cumming)
* Use libsigc++-3.0 instead of libsigc++-2.0.
