Release v1.0.0

In release v1.0.0 of runV and hyperstart, we introduced several significant updates and fixed many bugs to make runV production ready. The featured updates include:

• Compatibility:
  • compatible with the most recent 1.0 of OCI runtime specification;
  • compatible with the latest CNCF containerd;
  • compatible with the latest Docker (17.06.1-ee and later).
• New hypervisor architectures support:
  • xenpv driver, with the latest Xen 4.9, we could launch runV with very minimal performance penalty (<5 % in most scenarios) on instance of Google GCE and other IaaS platform;
  • kvmtool driver brings the offical ARM support to runV.
• Feature update:
  • Read-only rootfs: allows runV to launch with read-only rootfs;
  • support vhostuser network card for qemu driver, which enables the low latency network for scenarios such as NFV.
• Many other feature or test improvements, and many bug fix.

Thanks the contribution from Huawei, ARM, Intel, Alibaba, and other individuals.
