Jun 6 2023:
Bumped version number to 3.08 after going thru some accumulated github issues.

Jun 3 2021 - Jun 2023:
Fix various "issues" people have found with fuzz testing.  
These can only be produced when running jhead in some memory access testing setup
such as ASAN and throwing carefully crafted garbage at it, causing jhead to read
some bytes past memory it malloced.  no real life consequences.

Also some spelling fixes and other stuff, but no new features.
