 Log Message:
 Update to 0.15.  Closes PR 38144.  Changes:
 btpd 0.15:
 ----------
 
 Bug fixes:
 - The event loop could busy loop for up to a millisecond sometimes.
 - On some platforms btpd couldn't initiate connections to other peers.
 - The timer code was broken on MacOS X.
 
 btpd 0.14:
 ----------
 
 Misc:
 - IPv6 support.
 - Bans peers with bad data.
 - Better tracker compatability and more reliable tracker communication.
 - Show tracker counts in btcli stat.
 - Compiles on Solaris 10.
 - Btpd will now signal startup failures via the process exit value and
   print the failure reason to stdout.
 - Better shutdown and torrent stop behaviour.
 - Needs pthreads again.
 - Removed libevent in favour of own event loop code.
 
 Bug fixes:
 - An integer array was misaligned, which could cause crashes on systems
   with alignment requirements. E.g., on XScale arm.
 - An error in the torrent parsing code could cause crashes.
 - The '--topdir' option to btcli add didn't work properly for single file
   torrents.
 - The system name lookup scheme is now used. In btpd 0.13 only dns lookups
   were performed.
 
 btpd 0.13:
 ----------
 
 Misc:
 - cURL is no longer required. btpd now uses its own http client.
 - btpd doesn't use threads anymore, so pthreads are not required.
 - Needed parts of libevent are now included in btpd.
 - I/O errors for torrents no longer make btpd shut down. Instead the
   problematic torrent is stopped.
 - Added the option '--ip' to specify the ip address btpd will report
   to trackers.
 - Resume file format changed. Already added torrents will be retested once.
 - The torrent info (ratio etc.) are now saved regularly.
 - Reduced the amount of outgoing data kept in memory.
