This version fixes a few bugs that came up after the release of version 2.6.1.

The changes since version 2.6.1:

- Added UPDATE-2.6.0, which was missing in the official 2.6.0 release.
- Fixed unexpected calls of the '-r' script when a recording is interrupted and
  the timer has not yet finished.
- Now dropping capabilities after opening terminal.
- Now assuming the lock when removing deleted recordings even if the disk is full
  (reported by Claus Muus).
- When checking whether a recording is still active, VDR no longer checks whether the
  index file is being written, but rather checks for the presence of a '.timer' file.
  The cutter now writes a dummy '.timer' file with timer ID '0' to make this work
  for recordings that are currently being edited.
- Fixed a possible crash if an editing process is canceled while the edited
  recording is being replayed.
- Added a warning if an attempt is made to obtain a write lock twice from the same thread.
- Fixed default values for DVB-T (thanks to Winfried Köhler and Jose Angel).
- Removed some unnecessary locks from SVDRPClientHandler.
- Fixed a possible deadlock in case two SVDRP clients send each other POLL commands
  at the same time.
- Added a missing 'const' to cTimers::GetTimerForEvent() (reported by Markus Ehrnsperger).
- Added a chapter about locking to PLUGINS.html (suggested by Markus Ehrnsperger).
- Implemented parsing frame rate and image size for MPEG2, H.264 and H.265 (thanks
  to Christoph Haubrich).
- Using the frame rate parsed from the stream, with fall back to determining it from
  PTS values.
- Fixed printing/scanning values for systems where %ld doesn't work for time_t.
- Added support for kernel based LIRC driver (thanks to Marko Mäkelä). Use the
  command line option '--lirc=/dev/lirc0' to use this. Requires kernel version 5.10
  or above.
- Added periodic calls to malloc_trim(0) to reduce memory consumption (thanks to
  Onur Sentürk).
- Fixed regenerating the index file of a recording in case it is present, but empty
  (reported by Stefan Herdler).
- Added missing rounding when dividing frequencies in processing the NIT (thanks to
  Winfried Köhler).
