vhostmd provides a "metrics communication channel" between a host and its hosted 
virtual machines, allowing limited introspection of host resource usage from 
within virtual machines.

It's been nearly 7 years since Rich Jones bumped the version to 0.5, so it is 
time for a new 1.0 release! I tagged git and created a github release. New in 
version 1.0:

- virtio as a transport mechanism
- updated to work with modern Xen
- SIGPIPE handler and reconnect to libvirtd
- systemd service file
- modernize build files
- misc bug fixes and improvements

Thanks to everyone who contributed to the release!
