Update to v1.10

  == 21 January 2011 ==

  I've just released sparsehash 1.10.  This fixes a performance
  regression in sparsehash 1.8, where sparse_hash_map would copy
  hashtable keys by value even when the key was explicitly a reference.
  It also fixes compiler warnings from MSVC 10, which uses some c++0x
  features that did not interact well with sparsehash.

  There is no reason to upgrade unless you use references for your
  hashtable keys, or compile with MSVC 10.  A full list of changes is
  described in
  [http://google-sparsehash.googlecode.com/svn/tags/sparsehash-1.10/ChangeLog
  ChangeLog].

  === 24 September 2010 ===

  I've just released sparsehash 1.9.  This fixes a size regression in
  sparsehash 1.8, where the new allocator would take up space in
  `sparse_hash_map`, doubling the sparse_hash_map overhead (from 1-2
  bits per bucket to 3 or so).  All users are encouraged to upgrade.

  This change also marks enums as being Plain Old Data, which can speed
  up hashtables with enum keys and/or values.  A full list of changes is
  described in
  [http://google-sparsehash.googlecode.com/svn/tags/sparsehash-1.9/ChangeLog
  ChangeLog].

  === 29 July 2010 ===

  I've just released sparsehash 1.8.  This includes improved support for
  `Allocator`, including supporting the allocator constructor arg and
  `get_allocator()` access method.

  To work around a bug in gcc 4.0.x, I've renamed the static variables
  `HT_OCCUPANCY_FLT` and `HT_SHRINK_FLT` to `HT_OCCUPANCY_PCT` and
  `HT_SHRINK_PCT`, and changed their type from float to int.  This
  should not be a user-visible change, since these variables are only
  used in the internal hashtable classes (sparsehash clients should use
  `max_load_factor()` and `min_load_factor()` instead of modifying these
  static variables), but if you do access these constants, you will need
  to change your code.

  Internally, the biggest change is a revamp of the test suite.  It now
  has more complete coverage, and a more capable timing tester.  There
  are other, more minor changes as well.  A full list of changes is
  described in the
  [http://google-sparsehash.googlecode.com/svn/tags/sparsehash-1.8/ChangeLog
  ChangeLog].

  === 31 March 2010 ===

  I've just released sparsehash 1.7.  The major news here is the
  addition of `Allocator` support.  Previously, these hashtable classes
  would just ignore the `Allocator` template parameter.  They now
  respect it, and even inherit `size_type`, `pointer`, etc. from the
  allocator class.  By default, they use a special allocator we provide
  that uses libc `malloc` and `free` to allocate.  The hash classes
  notice when this special allocator is being used, and use `realloc`
  when it can.  This means that the default allocator is significantly
  faster than custom allocators are likely to be (since realloc-like
  functionality is not supported by STL allocators).

  There are a few more minor changes as well.  A full list of changes is
  described in the
  [http://google-sparsehash.googlecode.com/svn/tags/sparsehash-1.7/ChangeLog
  ChangeLog].

  === 11 January 2010 ===

  I've just released sparsehash 1.6.  The API has widened a bit with the
  addition of `deleted_key()` and `empty_key()`, which let you query
  what values these keys have.  A few rather obscure bugs have been
  fixed (such as an error when copying one hashtable into another when
  the empty_keys differ).  A full list of changes is described in the
  [http://google-sparsehash.googlecode.com/svn/tags/sparsehash-1.6/ChangeLog
  ChangeLog].

  === 9 May 2009 ===

  I've just released sparsehash 1.5.1.  Hot on the heels of sparsehash
  1.5, this release fixes a longstanding bug in the sparsehash code,
  where `equal_range` would always return an empty range.  It now works
  as documented.  All sparsehash users are encouraged to upgrade.

  === 7 May 2009 ===

  I've just released sparsehash 1.5.  This release introduces tr1
  compatibility: I've added `rehash`, `begin(i)`, and other methods that
  are expected to be part of the `unordered_map` API once `tr1` in
  introduced.  This allows `sparse_hash_map`, `dense_hash_map`,
  `sparse_hash_set`, and `dense_hash_set` to be (almost) drop-in
  replacements for `unordered_map` and `unordered_set`.

  There is no need to upgrade unless you need this functionality, or
  need one of the other, more minor, changes described in the
  [http://google-sparsehash.googlecode.com/svn/tags/sparsehash-1.5/ChangeLog
  ChangeLog].
