## Improvements
##
- AES Crypt Plugin: Reduced max password length from 256 to 128 which improved performance by 22%
- CRC32: Prevent decompression of data used in CRC32 calculation on host. This leads to false negatives with TrueCrypt/VeraCrypt keyfiles
- CUDA Backend: Do not warn about missing CUDA SDK installation if --stdout is used
- OpenCL Backend: Use CL_DEVICE_BOARD_NAME_AMD instead of CL_DEVICE_NAME for device name in case OpenCL runtime supports this query
- Performance Monitor: Add -S as a user suggestion to improve cracking performance in specific attack configurations
- RAR3-p (Compressed): Fix workaround in unrar library in AES constant table generation to enable multi-threading support
- RC4 Kernels: Improved performance by 20%+ for hash-modes Kerberos 5 (etype 23), MS Office (<= 2003) and PDF (<= 1.6) by using new RC4 code
- Status Screen: Show currently running kernel type (pure, optimized) and generator type (host, device)
- UTF8-to-UTF16: Replaced naive UTF8 to UTF16 conversion with true conversion for RAR3, AES Crypt, MultiBit HD (scrypt) and Umbraco HMAC-SHA1
- AES Crypt Plugin: Reduced max password length from 256 to 128 which improved performance by 22%
- RAR3-p (Compressed): Fix workaround in unrar library in AES constant table generation to enable multi-threading support
- CRC32: Prevent decompression of data used in CRC32 calculation on host. This leads to false negatives with TrueCrypt/VeraCrypt keyfiles

- Dependencies: Updated LZMA SDK from 19.00 to 21.02 alpha
- Dependencies: Updated xxHash from 0.1.0 to v0.8.0 - Stable XXH3
- Documentation: Update missing documentation in plugin developer guide for OPTS_TYPE_MP_MULTI_DISABLE and OPTS_TYPE_NATIVE_THREADS
- Kernels: Add standalone true UTF8 to UTF16 converter kernel that runs after amplifier. Use OPTS_TYPE_POST_AMP_UTF16LE from plugin
- Kernels: Add RC4 cipher to crypto library with optimized shared memory access pattern which will not cause any bank conflicts if -u <= 32
- Kernels: Add standalone true UTF8 to UTF16 converter kernel that runs after amplifier. Use OPTS_TYPE_POST_AMP_UTF16LE from plugin
- Modules: Recategorized HASH_CATEGORY option in various modules
