Release Notes

1.0.1
 - Native parallel directory scanner replaces the Get-ChildItem walk.
   A full C:\ scan (467k items) drops from minutes to roughly 5 seconds.
 - Junctions and symlinks are listed but no longer descended into, so
   directories reachable by more than one path are counted once and the
   AppData self-junctions can no longer send the scan into a loop.
 - Paths longer than MAX_PATH are now enumerated instead of erroring.
 - Allocated size uses the volume's real cluster size instead of assuming 4 KiB.
 - Live scan progress shows item count and the directory being read.

1.0.0
 - Initial release. NCDU-style interactive disk usage browser for PowerShell.
