v1.3 Beta Released

[lhmouse]

This release contains the following changes since v1.2:

1. This is the first version that has gained official support for GCC 13. It is possible to build GCC 13 with --enable-threads=mcf, without extra patches.
2. When linked as a static library, there is now only a single global state within each process. This means that it is now acceptable to create a thread in one module and delete it in another without crashes.
3. Thread priority APIs, _MCF_thread_get_priority() and _MCF_thread_set_priority(), have been added.
4. The non-standard extension _thrd_sleep_until() which takes an absolute time point has been added, which matches the old specification of C11 thrd_sleep() before N1564, except that it is interruptible.
5. Support for GCC's libobjc has been added. GCC can now be built with objc and objc++` enabled.
6. Support for LLVM's libc++ has been added, but no progress has been made in libc++ itself.
7. __gthread_recursive_mutex_trylock() and __gthread_recursive_mutex_timedlock() no longer return zero if the mutex cannot be locked.
