NFD version 0.7.1

Release date: October 8, 2020

The build requirements have been increased to require Clang >= 4.0, Xcode >= 9.0, and Python 3. Meanwhile, it is recommended to use GCC >= 7.4.0 and Boost >= 1.65.1. This effectively drops official support for Ubuntu 16.04 when using distribution-provided Boost packages -- NFD may still work on this platform, but we provide no official support for it. Additionally, this release drops support for CentOS 7.
