2.4.1 - Guaranteed Speed 🦔

BIG FEATURES

Liking RustScan? You can directly support development by buying me a burrito or a coffee (I consume nothing else 😉) https://github.com/sponsors/bee-san

RustScan is now guaranteed to always be fast

We have added benchmarks for UDP and TCP scanning, and are setting up an automated CI service to make sure every PR doesn't decrease RustScan's speed.

We also handled some things like deduplication, less clones(), and more to ensure speed.

Also.... We now have a RustScan library! You can use RustScan in your code :)

This release is really just a lot of things. Seriously. Look at the What's Changed!

Big big thanks to everyone who has contributed <3
