Latest FB version 1.07.2 changelog.txt

A couple bug fixes and updates to build scripts and packages.

Highlights:

• updates to makefile and build scripts
• gas64 win/lin x86_64 emitter can build the fbc compiler and pass all tests in the test-suite making this the first self hosting release for gas64 (SARG)
• improvements for linux-arm and linux-aarch64 targets with official download packages for Raspbian9-arm & Ubuntu-20.10-aarch64
• bootstrap now includes linux-arm and linux-aarch64 targets
• several minor bug fixes

If you don't need official packages for arm, aarch64, or gas64, then you probably OK to stick with 1.07.1 release until 1.08.0.
