### BUG FIXES:
- Fixed the validating of remote filter rules.
- Fixed the client-side validating of the remote sender's filtering behavior.
- More fixes for the "unrequested file-list name" name, including a copy of
"/" with `--relative` enabled and a copy with a lot of related paths with
`--relative` enabled (often derived from a `--files-from` list).
- When rsync gets an unpack error on an ACL, mention the filename.
- Avoid oversetting sanitize_paths when a daemon is serving "/" (even if

- The [`use chroot`](rsyncd.conf.5#use_chroot) daemon parameter now defaults to
"unset" so that rsync can test if chrooting works and decide to proceed with
a sanitized copy if chroot is not supported (e.g., for a non-root daemon).

Explicitly setting it to true or false (on or off) behaves the same way as
before.
- The `--fuzzy` option was optimized a bit to try to cut down on the amount of
computations when considering a big pool of files. The simple heuristic from
Kenneth Finnegan resuled in about a 2x speedup.

unset, a little extra paranoia doesn't hurt).
- I've noticed that some packagers haven't installed support/nameconvert for
users to use in their chrooted rsync configs. Even if it is not installed
as an executable script (to avoid a python3 dependency) it would be good to
install it with the other rsync-related support scripts.
