A note on semver: I'm not bumping minor, despite breaking changes. In one
case, it is a change in a debug aide and not a part of the regular use cases
where someone might be broken. On the other, the chance of someone being
impacted by such a change is minuscule.

v0.7.2

• Bump syntect version to 1.7.0 and enable dump-load feature (4d0e14a7)
