pbc-1.0.0 released

Thanks to many contributors for fixes, wrappers, and tests.

It’s been over a decade since the last release, and over two since pbc-0.0.0. I had thought this project would have faded into obscurity by now, but I still receive patches occasionally. I challenged myself to build a new release. Miraculously, the old scripts still seem to work, and the only non-trivial edit was renaming a few MinGW invocations in a Makefile.

I bumped up the major version number. At the rate I’m going, this could be the last release, and it’d be a shame if the project never reached v1.0!

@dangowrt is this package used by anything? I don't see anything depending on it, so I was wondering if it can be dropped.

It used to be used for GNUnet in the past, see f24b634
As it is not used any more we can drop it.

Drop the package since no packages depend on it.
