Subject: musl 1.2.0 released

This release moves all 32-bit archs to 64-bit time_t, enabling them to
represent times beyond January of 2038.

There are no new requirements on kernel version, and this is not a
hard ABI break, but the type changes do impact compatibility between
code built against previous versions of musl and code built against
musl 1.2. Users upgrading 32-bit systems should read the detailed
time64 release notes. 64-bit systems are not affected.

In addition, character data has been updated to align with Unicode
12.1.0, along with fixes for some errors in the data and a replacement
for inefficient and unmaintainable case-mapping code. Correctness of
results has been improved in the math library, particularly some
complex functions and 32-bit x86 asm. Various arch-specific bugs have
also been fixed.
