Summary description: LaTeX commands for enclosing characters in circles, squares, diamonds, or brackets

Announcement text: ------------------------------------------------------------------------

KKsymbols 2.2.1: enclosures now auto-align their content to the
current font's x-height by default, so short glyphs such as the
lowercase roman numerals of \Rrnum line up uniformly without
manual \vphantom (new \kksref / \kksrefoff / \kksrefauto);
also fixes an infinite hang when a font-size command is used
inside an argument. Backward compatible.

Summary description: LaTeX commands for enclosing characters in circles, squares, diamonds, or brackets

Announcement text: ------------------------------------------------------------------------

Version 2.2.2 is a documentation release. The manual adds a
comparison with luatexja-otf (command-by-command examples and
a practical selection guide), a section on roman numerals,
and an expanded description of the automatic reference box:
the automatic reference is based on the current fontrCOs x-height
and is not identical to \vphantom{\Rrnum{6}}, so an explicit
\kksref{\Rrnum{6}} should be used when lowercase roman numerals
have to be aligned exactly.
There are no functional changes to the package code.
