+       added note about unsupported spiflash* commands, and about now
        obsolete script command (see below)
    * Merged src/script.c into src/include.c. The command looks for the
        specified file in the repository if it's neither an absolute path
        nor begins with ./ or ../, otherwise it uses the filename as is.
+       When called as "script", the command behaves as before but emits
+       a warning that "include" should be used in future.
