Subject: Add note of set_free_space_divisor, set_warn_proc ABI change after gc-7.1
X-Git-Tag: v8.0.0~420

Add note of set_free_space_divisor, set_warn_proc ABI change after gc-7.1

Issue #197 (bdwgc).

GC_set_free_space_divisor() and GC_set_warn_proc() used to return
some value.  But starting from version 7.1alpha2, these API functions
do not return any value.

* include/gc.h (GC_set_free_space_divisor, GC_set_warn_proc): Add
comment that the setter used to returned the old value in gc-7.1 (and
previous versions).
