v2.1.6

This is the v2.1.6 release of PyCBC.

The 2.1.x release line will be reserved for production PyCBC Live analyses throughout the first part of O4, and possibly for the entire run, depending on development activities over the next year. It should therefore only contain backports from the master branch related to PyCBC Live.

With respect to 2.1.5, 2.1.6 fixes a few bugs. The main functionality of the search is unchanged.

A Docker container for this release is available from the pycbc/pycbc-el8 repository on Docker Hub and can be downloaded using the command:

docker pull pycbc/pycbc-el8:v2.1.6
