* Removed dependency on CPAN packages for multi-threaded operation. While it might not be a bad idea to update the threads and Thread::Queue packages, it is no longer necessary.
* Added vagrant test configurations for Ubuntu 12.04 and CentOS 6.
* Modified wait backoffs to use a Fibonacci sequence rather than geometric. This will make then grow less aggressively while still giving reasonable wait times.
* More options for regression tests and improved code to run in a variety of environments.
* Removed pg_backrest_remote and added the functionality to pg_backrest as remote command.
* Added file and directory syncs to the File object for additional safety during backup/restore and archiving. Suggested by Andres Freund.
* Support for Perl 5.10.1 and OpenSSH 5.3 which are default for CentOS/RHEL 6. Found by Eric Radman.
* Improved error message when backup is run without archive_command set and without --no-archive-check specified. Found by Eric Radman.
* Moved version number out of the VERSION file to Version.pm to better support packaging. Suggested by Michael Renner.
* Replaced IPC::System::Simple and Net::OpenSSH with IPC::Open3 to eliminate CPAN dependency for multiple distros.
