Update Information:

### Botan 1.10.14 ### * NOTE WELL: Botan 1.10.x is supported for security
patches only until 2017-12-31 * Fix integer overflow during BER decoding, found
by Falko Strenzke. This bug is not thought to be directly exploitable but
upgrading ASAP is advised. (CVE-2016-9132) * Fix two cases where (in error
situations) an exception would be thrown from a destructor, causing a call to
std::terminate. * When RC4 is disabled in the build, also prevent it from being
included in the OpenSSL provider. (GH #638)
