We mentioned this at the last ESC and I volunteered to do a new release
if I got the privs to do that, which I did (thanks cloph).

pre-release tarball at
https://dev-www.libreoffice.org/src/libcmis-0.6.0.tar.xz
and wip gerrit change to bump the bundled version at
https://gerrit.libreoffice.org/c/core/+/157704

I'll give it a day or so before the real release to give a chance to
catch if I've done anything particularly dumb wrt soname bumping and so
forth.
