[ANNOUNCE] QEMU 5.1.0-rc3 is now available

[Michael Roth]

Hello,

On behalf of the QEMU Team, I'd like to announce the availability of the
fourth release candidate for the QEMU 5.1 release.  This release is meant
for testing purposes and should not be used in a production environment.

A note from the maintainer:

  Unless any last minute release-critical bugs are discovered, this will
  be the last release candidate before we release 5.1. (If anything
  does turn up, as usual we'll roll another rc and do the full release
  a bit later than scheduled).

You can help improve the quality of the QEMU 5.1 release by testing this
release and reporting bugs on Launchpad:

  https://bugs.launchpad.net/qemu/

The release plan, as well a documented known issues for release
candidates, are available at:

Please add entries to the ChangeLog for the 5.1 release below:

Thank you to everyone involved!
