[minicoredumper] version 2.0.2 released

[John Ogness]

Hello,

Version 2.0.2 of the minicoredumper is available. This release consists
of several important bugfixes for problems that have been reported since
2.0.0. Several of these fixes have been available in the git repository
for a while.

With this release the general robustness of the minicoredumper program
has been improved by adding error handling to all i/o operations. For
this reason alone it is recommended that all minicoredumper users
upgrade to 2.0.2.

If you specify extra maps to dump (other than [vdso]), this new version
is particularly important. There have been critical fixes relating to
specifying extra maps, which can lead to corrupt core files.

See the release notes [0] for a full list of changes.

There are still many patches on the mailing list adding new features. I
am deciding how/when/if I want to integrate these features in an
upcoming version. For now, I wanted to release a version to fix the open
problems.

A special thanks to the various contributors for this release:

github.com/gotzl

Juergen Borleis
