0.0.12

Due to problems with stdbuf, the previous release (0.0.9) required a patch to work and no binary artifacts were generated. This release fixes that issue.

Changes

These are selected user-facing changes since 0.0.8.

• The minimum supported Rust version is now 1.54.
• The version numbers of the utils, the coreutils binary, uucore and uucore_procs are now synced. Hence the jump from 0.0.9 to 0.012.
• All utils now use UResult due to incredible work by @jfinkels, who contributed over 50 PRs for this to happen, with additional contributions by @thomasqueirozb, @Smicry and @E3uka. This change is mostly invisible to users, but does lead to more consistent error messages now and in the future.
