Release vibe.d 0.7.27

[Sönke Ludwig via Digitalmars-d-announce]

This release brings some larger changes:

  - The library has been split up into sub packages: code, utils, data,
    http, mail, diet, mongodb, redis and web. This is an intermediate
    step to moving the individual packages out to separate repositories
    with independent version numbers.

  - A lot of work went into performance tuning. Single-core performance
    of the HTTP server is improved by about +50% and multi-core
    performance scales properly again after excessive lock contention
    sneaked in in one of the previous releases. The number of worker
    threads is now also properly determined on all systems (including
    multi-CPU), which should fix the numbers for multi-threaded
    benchmarks (an update to the TechEmpower benchmark suite is on the
    way).

  - The REST interface generator now supports modelling collections with
    native D syntax using Collection!T. It also adds support for CORS.

  - The std.concurrency integration has been fixed and re-enabled - you
    can now use std.concurrency without worrying about blocking the
    event loop. In case of problems (std.concurrency doesn't support
    passing certain kinds of values), the old implementation can still
    be accessed as sendCompat/receiveCompat/...

  - Compiles on 2.066.0 up to 2.070.0. Note that this will be the last
    release that supports the 2.066.x frontend. The next release will
    require at least 2.067.0 or maybe even 2.068.0 (still TBD). This may
    unfortunately rule out GDC for the time being.
