This is a small patch release.

See:


In case anybody was wondering: bumping the version in configlet.nimble isn't necessary, but I do it deliberately. Our codebase will likely compile with some older version, but I don't want to keep track of the lowest supported Nim version (or add earlier Nim versions to CI).

People use configlet as a binary, not a library, so we're just forcing configlet developers to have the latest stable (or a recent devel) version of Nim installed. That's a little annoying, but it does eliminate an entire class of issues. And it's more user-friendly than seeing errors due to old/untested Nim versions.

I'm all for using the latest Nim version. Upgrading Nim is quite easy, especially when using choosenim.
