Bug fix release, fixes backported from the master (2.x) branch.
- libcupsfilters: Silenced compiler warnings
- libcupsfilters: Removed duplicate code in the apply_filters() function.
- driverless: If there are no driverless IPP printers available let "driverless" terminate with exit code 0 and not 1, to follow CUPS' standard of backends in discovery mode terminating with 0 if there are no appropriate printers found (Issue #375).
