First public uvg266 release!

uvg266 is a VVC encoder based on our Kvazaar HEVC encoder, with the original parallelization and many optimizations reused.
Most of the original HEVC tools are ready to use with Intra and Inter coding supported, and with additional VVC tools like increased intra angles, ALF and MTS already completely working. More tools are being actively developed and optimized for BD-rate.

Build system was replaced with CMake recently so please report any issues.

The Intra part of the encoder is described in an open-access journal article accepted to IEEE Transactions on Consumer Electronics with some initial performance tests, but currently uvg266 performs much better (we are preparing for some benchmarks).

Note The current presets do not use any of the new tools, you might want to enable them manually for testing!

For any help with uvg266, please make an issue and we will try to answer.
