New in this release:
* {= uq() =} will cause the replacement string to be unquoted. Example: parallel echo '{=uq()=}.jpg' ::: '*'
* {= uq; =} will cause the replacement string to be unquoted. Example: parallel echo '{=uq;=}.jpg' ::: '*'
* Speedup of startup by 40%: Find the parent shell differerently on GNU/Linux, cache information about the CPU and which setpgrp method to make GNU Parallel start 40% faster.
