[nginx-announce] njs-0.7.8

[Dmitry Volyntsev]

Hello,

I'm glad to announce a new release of NGINX JavaScript module (njs).

Notable new features:
  - js_preload_object directive:
     The directive preloads an immutable object at configure time.
     This significantly reduces the runtime cost of referencing large
     objects in JS code.
