The conversion specifier (in foreign/[2,3] facts)
string(N) has been dropped.
The conversion specifier chars has been renamed to
codes, in analogy with the built-in predicate
atom_codes/2, the second argument of which is a list of
character codes.
The C header generated by splfr from the foreign/[2,3]
facts now uses the const attribute where appopriate.
Foreign resources are no longer unloaded by
save_program/[1,2]. For this reason, the deinit function of a
foreign resource is no longer called when saving a program so
SP_WHEN_SAVE has been removed.
Many functions in the C API has been changed or removed, especially those related to OS and I/O operations. There are also a number of new C API functions.
