Bumps rink-core from 0.6.2 to 0.8.0.

Release notes

Sourced from rink-core's releases.

Rink v0.8.0

Features

Rink has been updated to New SI in #157. This changes several fundamental physical constants to now have exact definitions, rather than experimentally measured ones. Included in this change are updates to several CODATA constants, 4 new SI prefixes, as well as updating the definition of the parsec to the 2015 IAU resolution.

The binary size of Rink is now smaller, by as much as half, changed in #163. Rink now links to the system libcurl when possible, instead of using reqwest.

Rink now has a set of manpages, intended to be installed as part of distro packages. The definitions.units and other files can now be installed to a location like /usr/share/rink as well. The documentation is now stored in-repo in the docs/ directory, which makes pull requests to the docs possible going forward. See PACKAGING.md for how to build and install these. Added in #158.

Rink now supports several additional operators: << logical shift left, >> logical shift right, mod modulo/remainder, and bitwise and, or bitwise or, xor bitwise exclusive-or. (#161)

Recurring digits are now detected and displayed automatically. This change also made the default behavior of to digits show up to 1000 digits, as most numbers will be rendered significantly shorter, and usually you want the extra precision. Added in #162.

Bugfixes

Invalid dates should no longer cause Rink to crash. (#160)

Trig functions like sin() should now handle units correctly. (#164)

Converting to GB is now interpreted as gigabytes, not a British timezone. (#129)

Specific heat is no longer expressed in terms of gray, which is the SI unit of ionizing radiation. (#13)

New website

https://rinkcalc.app/about

Rink's website has been updated. It now contains documentation, releases, and an updated web version of Rink.

The web version is now a proper REPL, so the page contains the history of queries you ran. It also has a number of usability improvements like keeping the input bar focused, up/down arrows to access history, and a progress indicator on downloading the WASM blob on slow connections.

Other changes

The git tag for this release is signed with my GPG key. I'll try doing this going forward.
