- Update to version 2.2.0

* We now use BLAKE3 as a cryptographic hash function instead of SHA256. This
    change has made --build-id a few percent faster. libssl is no longer a build
    dependency. (7f7a744)
  * mold is now a few percent faster than the previous version due to an
    optimization of string merging code path. (1a13c50)
  * mold now emits slightly optimized code for thread-local variable accesses.
    (f057fda, d56f528)
  * [RISC-V] mold now supports TLSDESC relocations. TLSDESC is a new mechanism for
    faster thread-local variable access. We (@ishitatsuyuki) actually led the effort
    to ratify the specification (riscv-non-isa/riscv-elf-psabi-doc#373) and
    implement it to compiler toolchain including GCC, GNU binutils and, of course,
    mold. (141556d)
  * mold no longer marks an as-needed .so as "needed" if the .so file is not
    directly used by the output file. Previously, mold marked a .so file as "needed"
    if the .so file was used by another "needed" .so file. (f02db0f)
  * [PPC64] --execute-only now works on 64-bit PowerPC. (ac20d87, 51fec5f)
- Remove openssl dependency.
