Changes with njs 0.8.10                                          08 Apr 2025

     nginx modules:

     *) Feature: reading r.requestText or r.requestBuffer from
        a temp file.
        Previously, an exception was thrown when accessing r.requestText
        or r.requestBuffer if a client request body size exceeded
        client_body_buffer_size.

     *) Improvement: improved reporting of unhandled promise rejections.

     *) Bugfix: fixed name corruption in variable and header processing.

     *) Bugfix: fixed SharedDict.incr() with empty init argument
        for QuickJS engine.

     *) Bugfix: accepting response headers with underscore characters
        in Fetch API.

     Core:

     *) Change: fixed serializeToString().
        Previously, serializeToString() was exclusiveC14n() which returned
        string instead of Buffer. According to the published 
documentation it
        should be c14n().

     *) Feature: added WebCrypto API for QuickJS engine.

     *) Feature: added TextEncoder/TextDecoder for QuickJS engine.

        exceptions for QuickJS engine.

        and QuickJS-NG.
