problems in multi threading programs.

pcsc-lite-1.4.102: Ludovic Rousseau
27 June 2008
- pcscd -v now displays the enabled features
- add support of SCARD_AUTOALLOCATE in SCardListReaders(),
  SCardListReaderGroups() and SCardGetAttrib
- add SCardFreeMemory()
- try to use the reader polling thread also for the other slots on a
  multi-slots reader
- solve a possible crash with SCardCancel() in multithreading environment
- SCardConnect(), SCardReconnect(): do not check the parameter
  dwPreferredProtocols if dwShareMode == SCARD_SHARE_DIRECT
  This is used on contactless readers to talk to the reader without any
  card and "random" value of dwPreferredProtocols
- better support of driver termination (when pcscd exits)
- kill the driver polling thread only if the driver supports it
  (declared using TAG_IFD_POLLING_THREAD_KILLABLE)
- generate a .tar.bz2 archive (smaller than the .tar.gz archive)
- some other minor improvements and bug corrections
