Version 1.5.1 -- January 1, 2021

Minor Enhancements

• This is a minor enhancement release, but is a major step toward
  further portability of the ParaMonte library. All ParaMonte kernel
  library dependencies are now properly handled and recognized at runtime
  without such aggressive actions as permanently redefining the environmental
  path variables, most importantly, PATH and LD_LIBRARY_PATH on Linux/macOS.

• The ParaMonte kernel routines are now capable of handling user-input
  file paths that contain white-space (blank) or other exotic characters.

• The Bash build script for the ParaMonte C/C++/Fortran examples can now handle
  file paths that contain white-space (blank) or other exotic characters.

• The shared (dynamic) library file naming convention is now changed from
  using "dynamic" in the file name to using "shared" in the file name.

• Typo-fixes in the documentation of the library.
