* Support BusyBox's ``arping``
* Improve how ARP is handled. If ``ArpFile`` method succeeds, use it
instead of ``ArpingHost``
* Speed up the first call to ``ArpingHost``
* Fix FORCE_METHOD not being respected for IPv4 macs
* Fix `ArpFile` method being used for IPv6
* Deprecate Python 3.6 support
* This release is a *complete rewrite of getmac from the ground up*. The
public API of `getmac` is **unchanged** as part of this rewrite.
* Fully support Python 3.9
* Tentatively support Python 3.10 and 3.11
* `arping` (POSIX) or `SendARP` (Windows) will now *always* be used instead
of sending a UDP packet when looking for the MAC of a IPv4 host, if
they're available and operable (otherwise, UDP + ARP table check will be
used like before).
* Added ability to override the detected platform via `--override-platform`
argument (CLI) or `getmac.getmac.OVERRIDE_PLATFORM` variable (Python).
This will force methods for that platform to be used, regardless of the
actual platform.
* Overhauled `ifconfig` parsing. It should now be far more reliable and
accurate across all platforms.
* Fixed bug with `/proc/net/route` parsing
* Removed man pages from distribution (`getmac.1`/`getmac2.1`). They were
severely out of date and unused.

- 0.8.3 (12/10/2021)
Announcement: Compatibility with Python versions older than 3.6 (2.7, 3.4, and 3.5) is deprecated and will be removed in getmac 1.0.0.
If you are stuck on an unsupported Python, considor loosely pinning the version of this package in your dependency list, e.g. getmac<1.
