Unit 1.31.1 released

[Timo Stark]

Hi, NGINX Unit community,

We are delighted to announce Unit 1.31.1, a maintenance release that fixes several bugs,
enhances the WebAssembly technology preview, and updates tools and packaging.

After a very successful launch of our WebAssembly integration in 1.31.0, we have made
some minor improvements. With the unit-wasm SDK, you can now explicitly set the HTTP
return code of a given request. Also, requests with payloads larger than 4 GB are now
handled properly. For more information, see the unit-wasm SDK documentation.

The unitc command line tool is now able to convert Unit configuration between JSON and
YAML formats. It also supports a new URI scheme docker:// to make it even easier to work
with Unit running in a container.

To learn more, see our blog post about this release:
