Bug fix release, several minor fixes and especially memory issues in cups-browsed

  • libcupsfilters, cups-browsed: Fix memory issues in ppdgenerator and cups-browsed (Pull request #226).
  • pdftops: Mention cups-filters README instead of CUPS README in debug log (Pull request #225).
  • pdftopdf, gstoraster, foomatic-rip: Use "-dSAFER" Ghostscript option, instead of the deprecated "-dPARANOIDSAFER" (Pull request #224).
  • Build System: Replace '==' in configure.ac test with '=', as the former is a bashism (Pull request #222).
