1.0.0.dev1

Fcp has moved on to the next stage of its life. We've started development on
the affectionately named "fcp v2".

There's a couple main goals for the new fcp version:

• Develop an IDL (interface description language) to replace the old json configuration.
• Allow fcp to generate code that works for protocols other than CAN bus.
• Extend the information that fcp is capable of encoding.

IDL example:

Documentation can be found in: https://fcp-core.readthedocs.io/en/latest/.

v0.56.0

• Check that release notes exist:
  - add a pre-commit hook (hooks/check_release_notes).
  - call the script from .gitlab-ci.yaml,
• Add better comparison of fcp version to the GUI:
  - Handle the case of the local version being higher than the upstream one.
• Support for encoding socketcan messages.
• Improve decoding of signed signals.
• Rename fcp_v2 to idl

This release contains some bugfixes, small improvements and introduces
fcp_v2 the new description language that replaces the fcp json
specification format.

For now fcp commands support both the json specification format and
fcp_v2.
