Noteworthy changes in release 1.41 (2022-06-25) [stable]

* Bump LT_REVISION for new release.
  It was mistakenly left at the same value since 1.38.

* Add version number related self-checks.


Noteworthy changes in release 1.40 (2022-06-20) [stable]

* lib: Bump STRINGPREP_VERSION to 1.40.
  It was mistakenly left at 1.38 in the 1.39 release.


Noteworthy changes in release 1.39 (2022-06-20) [stable]

* lib: Code detecting current locale broken since 1.36.
  The code always returned ASCII. The precise cause is complicated to
  track down but likely boils down to the new autotools/gettext
  bootstrapping sequence introduced in release 1.36. Reported by Богдан
  Пилипенко <bogdan.pylypenko107@gmail.com>.

* maint: Java JAR archive no longer included in source tarball.

* Minor fixes: typos, makefiles, indentation, gnulib update, etc.
