First beta for the 2.077.0 release.

This release comes with a new, more compact mangling, templated vector
operations, reproducible dmd builds, and various fixes.

http://dlang.org/download.html#dmd_beta
http://dlang.org/changelog/2.077.0.html

We also switched dlang to use `-beta.1`, `-rc.1` suffixes for
pre-releases, matching dub and semver.

Please report any bugs at https://issues.dlang.org

- -Martin

NB: Switching dlang to use semver is in discussion, but required to
adapt the release and development processes (also see
https://gist.github.com/mdparker/ab61a1309752905cf93acb2653c50beb).

Congratz, looking forward to the new compact mangles and SIMD improvements.

Mangling is solely due to Rainer Schütze's persistence.

Indeed that wasn't mentioned, the vectorized array ops were preceded by lots of improvements in dmd's SIMD code. Those were already released with 2.076.0. Most notably: https://github.com/dlang/dmd/pull/7003 https://github.com/dlang/dmd/pull/6626

First release candidate for 2.077.0.

The OMF Windows API import libraries were updated, a bug in std.bigint
was fixed, and the version identifier for `-betterC` is now `D_BetterC`.

Thanks, i have no problem here with the RC, tested it well, though looking at the log there would be no reason why i would have.

Actually there's a REG :/ a 192 bytes leak is created by the GC, just with an empty main. Also i don't know how this is possible but travisCI runs with DMD 2.077 by default (even if not released).

You can ignore this REG i guess. After reflection it appears that it's only a minor problem that only happens w/ -unittest and that's even not a true leak, despite of being reported by valgrind: https://issues.dlang.org/show_bug.cgi?id=17960

For the install.sh script (and Travis-CI) it's released when we update downloads.dlang.org/releases/LATEST, this happens slightly before the release announcement.

Glad we can use arrays ops back! Thanks.
