Summary description: BibLaTeX stylefiles for software products

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


The biblatex-software package has been updated to version 1.2-8.

This release completes crossref functionality for software bibliography
entry types (software, softwareversion, softwaremodule, codefragment).
Key features in this release:

* Full support for concise format with automatic field omission
- Child entries automatically inherit fields from parent entries via the
crossref field
- Supports multi-level inheritance (e.g., software raA version raA module raA fragment)
- With the concise format enabled:
- When a parent entry is cited, child entries show only differing fields
- Automatically omits matching fields: title, version, editor, author,
institution, url, repository, hal_id, license
- Provides citation reference to parent entry for context
