+- imjournal: add ratelimiting capability
+  The original imjournal code did not support ratelimiting at all. We
+  now have our own ratelimiter. This can mitigate against journal
+  database corruption, when the journal re-sends old data. This is a
+  current bug in systemd journal, but we won't outrule this to happen
+  in the future again. So it is better to have a safeguard in place.
+  By default, we permit 20,000 messages witin 10 minutes. This may
+  be a bit restrictive, but given the risk potential it seems reasonable.
+  Users requiring larger traffic flows can always adjust the value.
+- bugfix: potential loop in rate limiting
+  if the message that tells about rate-limiting gets rate-limited itself,
+  it will potentially create and endless loop
+- bugfix: potential segfault in imjournal if journal DB is corrupted
+- bugfix: prevent a segfault in imjournal if state file is not defined
+- bugfix imzmq3: potential segfault on startup
+  if no problem happend at startup, everything went fine
+  Thanks to Hongfei Cheng and Brian Knox for the patch
