[ANN] bytestring-0.11.0.0-rc1

[Andrew Lelechenko]

On behalf of the maintainers team I'm happy to announce bytestring-0.11.0.0-rc1: https://github.com/haskell/bytestring/tree/0.11.0.0-rc1 
This is a first major release since 2012, so I would like to encourage everyone to give it a try before it is shipped with GHC 9.0. 
The update focuses on performance improvements and removes several deprecated functions and modules.

Changelog: https://github.com/haskell/bytestring/blob/0.11.0.0-rc1/Changelog.md
