Main changes compared to 5.0.x:

* The GnuTLS dependency has been increased from 2.2 to 2.8.
   * Support for checking if an NVT has all "new style" tags has been added.
   * License change from GPLv2 to GPLv2+ for nasl_builtin_nmap.c file for license
     harmonization purposes.

     openvas-libraries.
   * CVSS and Risk Factor are now computed from the CVSS Base
     vector, if available.
   * NASL tags setting a risk_factor are now ignored. It will therefore not be
     stored in nvti files and not transferred via OTP.

   * Binding procedures for MS Active Directory Services have been improved.
   * Support for LDAPS has been added.

     the new functionality.
   * Performance has been improved by avoiding excessive "gpg --version" calls.
   * Code that prevented special functions from being executed by
     non-authenticated NVTs has been removed. Background is that either the whole

     of it.
