Upcoming release this week: v2.1.0

[knadh]

This release has been delayed by a month as I tried to squeeze in a couple of things, mainly a transactional mailing API. listmonk has the core + scaffolding and all the right pieces to have a simple transactional mailing feature. However, handling templates optimally turned out to be trickier than I thought. Will try to work it out in the next release. I shouldn't have delayed a release for just one big experimental feature. Some more discussion on the release process here: #675

The current master now has over a hundred commits with a number of small improvements. An RC is live in our production environment at work (which sends out millions of e-mails weekly) and it's under observation. I always do this before every release as a stress test. This big fix 1b163d1 came out of this.

There's a nice PR from @mrhydejc #689 which is pending, but that'll only be available in the next release. It's big and needs to be tested thoroughly (and tweaked a little bit).

All that said, v2.1.0 looks good to be released in the coming week, after a few more rounds of testing. So, February 12th.
