v0.18.0

WASM

• The Jsonnet website now uses a WASM build of go-jsonnet for its online demos instead of an emscripten build of the C++ implementation. This is part of the ongoing migration towards go-jsonnet and away from C++ Jsonnet.

Standard library

• Performance improvement to std.stripChars
• New: std.objectGetOrDefault and std.objectGetOrDefaultAll
• New: quote_keys parameter for std.manifestYamlDoc
• New: std.manifestToml
• New: std.manifestJsonMinified
• New: std.parseYaml
