Glad to announce the first beta for LDC 1.29. Major changes:

• Based on D 2.099.0+.
• Support for LLVM 13. The prebuilt packages use v13.0.1.
• On Linux, LDC doesn't default to the ld.gold linker anymore. lld is recommended (related LTO issues have been fixed).
• Breaking extern(D) ABI change for all targets: formal parameters of non-variadic functions aren't reversed anymore. Naked DMD-style inline assembly might need to be adapted.

Please help test, and thanks to all contributors & sponsors!
