Subject: EPICS 7.0.5 C++ Normative Type library version

Dear all,

TL;DR   It looks like libnt.so has regressed, but it's just a wrong digit.

In EPICS Base release 7.0.4.1, the C++ Normative Types library (libnt.so) was showing version 6.0.2.
In EPICS Base release 7.0.5, it is included at version 6.0.1.

The mistake was done in 7.0.4.1, when the HEAD of the master branch was included instead of a released version - that's why it is showing its version as 6.0.2-development.
In 7.0.5, the latest release of the library is used, which correctly identifies as 6.0.1.

No need to worry: The commits left out in EPICS Base 7.0.5 were mainly whitespace and not containing any functional changes - the library effectively stayed the same.

Sorry for the confusion (most of which is probably on my end...),
~Ralph
