Many internal improvements to improve the developer experience
and long-term maintainability.

Many of the internal improvements focused on being able to avoid
Perl startup time in tests.  "make check" now runs about 50%
faster than before, and the new "make check-run" can be around
30% faster after being primed by "make check".

Most closures (anonymous subroutines) are purged from the
-nntpd, -httpd and WWW code paths to make checking for memory
leaks easier.

* documentation now builds on BSD make

* Date::Parse (TimeDate CPAN distribution) is now optional, allowing
  installation from OpenBSD systems via "pkg".

* the work-in-progress Xapian.pm SWIG bindings are now supported
  in addition to the traditional Search::Xapian XS bindings.
  Only SWIG bindings are packaged for OpenBSD.

* IPC::Run is no longer used in tests

* improved internal error checking and reporting in numerous places
  
* PublicInbox::WWW
  - "nested" search results page now shows relevancy percentages
  - solver works on "-U0" patches using "git apply --unidiff-zero"
  - raw HTML no longer shown inline in multipart/alternative messages
    (v1.2.0 regression)

* public-inbox-httpd / public-inbox-nntpd:
  - MSG_MORE used consistently in long responses
  - fixed IO::KQueue usage on *BSDs

* public-inbox-watch
  - avoid memory leak from cyclic reference on SIGHUP
  - fix documentation of publicinboxwatch.watchspam
