http://lists.lrde.epita.fr/pipermail/spot/2021q1/000356.html
* bin/autfilt.cc (--kill-states): New option.
* NEWS: Mention those.
* spot/twa/twagraph.hh, spot/twa/twagraph.cc: Add a kill_state()
method.
* tests/core/maskkeep.test: Test it.
* spot/tl/formula.cc: Correctly set eventual and universal properties
for ->, <->, and xor. This wasn't really relevant before, but there
are now situation where those are not rewritten.

Renkin.

When gf-guarentee works and produce a deterministic automaton, use it
right away without comparing it with the automaton produced by the
regular translation. This used to be the case for all -D scenarios
except -G -D.
Reported by Florian Renkin.
* spot/twaalgos/translate.cc: Use the result of
gf_guarantee_to_ba_maybe() or fg_safety_to_dca_maybe() whenever -D is
used.

iron out some slight output differences.
* tests/core/ltl2tgba2.test, tests/python/toparity.py: Lower expected
results in the test cases.
* tests/python/automata.ipynb, tests/core/prodor.test: Adjust to new
order.
This improves the determinism in a few cases.

to avoid emitting colors when they become empty.

determinization will be aborted.
Part of #444.

converted to Boolean.

the splits necessary for for synthesis, moved to
spot/twaalgos/synthesis.cc, spot/twaalgos/split.hh Split is now faster

* tests/core/ltlsynt.test: Adjust tests.
This restricts the time spent in translating sub-formulas for
implication tests by limiting the associated automata to 64 states by
default. Doing so this does worsen any test case, and actually remove
all calls the BuDDy's GC in bdd.test.

* NEWS: Mention it.
Use ltldo:... instead of error:... and warning:... and also improve
the diagnostic displayed after a translation failure to mention the
tool and formula.
Incidentally, this fixes a spurious test case failure observed by
Philipp Schlehuber on CentOS7.7 where glibc 2.17 is installed. With
this system, when posix_spawn() starts a binary that does not exist,
it returns success and let the child die with exit code 127. On more
recent glibc, posix_spawn() manages to return execve()'s errno, as if
the child had not been created. We handle those two different ways to
fail, but before this patch one used to print "error:..." and the
other "ltldo:...".
* bin/ltldo.cc: Display the program_name in error message. Display
the command name and formula on translation failure.
* tests/core/ltldo.test: Adjust test case.
* NEWS: Mention the fix.

from the main copy that are completely accepting and that do not
need to be repeated in the clones.
* tests/python/remfin.py: Add a test case.
* tests/core/ltl2dstar4.test: Improve expected results.
* NEWS: Mention the change.
This remove some restrictions that prevented fuse_marks_here from
simplifying certain patterns, as noted in the first comment of
issue #405.
* spot/twaalgos/cleanacc.cc (find_interm_rec, find_fusable): Remove
some unnecessary restrictions to singleton marks, and replace the hack
put one non-singleton mark at the beginning of the singleton list by a
sort.
* tests/python/simplacc.py: Add two test cases.
* tests/python/automata.ipynb, tests/core/remfin.test: Improve

* tests/core/ltl2tgba2.test: Add some test cases.
* tests/core/genltl.test: Improve expected results.
Juraj Major reported a case with 32 APs where ltlcross would take
forever to gather statistics. It turns out that for each edge,
twa_sub_statistics was enumerating all compatible assignments of 32
APs. This uses bdd_satcountset() instead, and also store the result
in a long long to avoid overflows.
* spot/twaalgos/stats.cc (twa_sub_statistics): Improve the code for
counting transitions.
* bin/common_aoutput.hh, bin/ltlcross.cc, spot/twaalgos/stats.hh:

* tests/core/ltlsynt.test: Add test case.
* spot/tl/formula.hh: Add variant of formula::is that support 4
arguments.
* spot/tl/simplify.hh, spot/tl/simplify.cc: Add option keep_top_xor
to preserve Xor and Equiv at the top-level.
* spot/twaalgos/translate.cc: Adjust ltl-split to deal with Xor and
Equiv for the -D -G case.
* NEWS: Mention that.
* tests/core/ltl2tgba2.test: Add test case.
* tests/python/simstate.py: Adjust expected result.
On some architectures this test fails due to several
reasons:
- missing headers
- use of valueAt instead of count in ConCS. Indeed,
valueAt acts similarly to count but avoids some validity
check that are required when the hashmap is growing.
This patch also:
- removes inaccurate comments from bricks.test.
- test more features for hashset.
* spot/bricks/brick-hashset,
tests/core/bricks.cc,
tests/core/bricks.test: Here.
