Full Release Notes

This version changes the behavior of bore in relation to the `--min-port` option. Now, when a minimum port is specified, any user that connects to bore by default (port: 0) will pick a random port that respects the value of the option. Previously the min port was only used as validation when the user connected with an explicitly specified `--port` variable, and the OS was queried for a free port instead.

This also lets us add a `--max-port` option, which was requested by multiple people.
