v12.7.2 release notes

When compiled without pybind11 2.8.0, pikepdf supplies a shim to implement
pikepdf._ObjectMapping.values() which has subtly different semantics
from a true dict-like objects; in particular it supports
next(objectmap.values())
where a standard dict requires
next(iter(objectmap.values()).

pybind11 2.8.0 now implements .values() properly, meaning some misuses of
protocol  in ocrmypdf fail.

If pybind11 < 2.8.0, pikepdf will
continue to offer its shim. If pybind11 >= 2.8.0, pikepdf does not add its shim.

Consequently no changes were needed in pikepdf.

Closes #843

+To install language packs (training data) such as the

+## Patch release
+
+- Check `pytest`
+
+- Update release notes
+
+## Minor release
+
+## Major release
+
+- Run `pre-commit autoupdate`
+
+- Check README.md
+
+- Check setup.py
+
+    - Are classifiers up to date?
+    - Is `python_requires` correct?
+    - Python 3.6 is EOL on December 2021-12. Could drop support then.
+    - Can we tighten any `install_requires` dependencies?
+
+- Search for old version shims we can remove
+
+    - "shim"
+    - ` pikepdf.__version__`
+
+- Search for deprecation: search all files for deprec*, etc.
+
+- Check requirements in setup.cfg
+
+- Delete `tests/cache`, do `pytest --runslow`, and update cache.
+
+- Do `pytest --cov-report html`

+"""Semaphore-free alternate executor.
+
+There are two popular environments that do not fully support the standard Python
+multiprocessing module: AWS Lambda, and Termux (a terminal emulator for Android).
+
+This alternate executor divvies up work among worker processes before processing,
+rather than having each worker consume work from a shared queue when they finish
+their task. This means workers have no need to coordinate with each other. Each
+worker communicates only with the main process.
+
+This is not without drawbacks. If the tasks are not "even" in size, which cannot
+be guaranteed, some workers may end up with too much work while others are idle.
+It is less efficient than the standard implementation, so not th edefault.

+from one location to another—in the same sequence or a
+different one. For example, you might insert a copy of the
+first verse between the second chorus and the bridge.

+One way to create a song is to record each track all the
+way through (up to 999 bars). Another way is to record
+each basic section (verse, chorus, etc.) in individual
+sequences, then use the CREATE SONG function to “chain”
+them together. CREATE SONG will then automatically
+copy all the parts into a new sequence. If desired, you can
+even set the last few bars to repeat infinitely, for a fadeout.
