OSTree v2016.6

[Colin Walters <walters verbum org>]

OSTree v2016.6 is now available via this git-evtag[1] signed tag:

https://github.com/ostreedev/ostree/releases/tag/v2016.6

For this release I also experimented with the github release infrastructure
and uploaded a tarball to help people whose build systems want those.
It isn't from `make distcheck` but just a `git archive` script that understands
submodules (as your build system should be doing).

Release 2016.6

There's quite a lot of changes in this release since 2016.5, but one
thing I want to call out explicitly is that we fixed a race condition
in the HTTP pull code that could cause hangs or crashes that mostly
occurred only when doing "large" pulls (thousands of object requests).
If this occurs, client systems can work around it by cancelling and
retrying the pull.

Other high level changes:

Jonathan Lebon:
ostree-repo-libarchive.c: major refactor

This laid more groundwork for rpm-ostree to import RPM (CPIO) archives
sanely. If you are integrating with an existing package management
format, this should help a lot.

repo: use OSTREE_TIMESTAMP (=1) for checked-out files

Is a quite interesting change - we previously used a timestamp of
zero, but Nix has apparently done better with 1 for various reasons.
This is a pretty subtle change, so be on the lookout for regressions.

Thanks to all contributors!
