Version 0.6 of libyahoo2

Release Notes: This release removes glib dependencies; it will use glib only if available. It adds the configure-time option --with-struct-callbacks to use a callback struct instead of callback functions, identities support, and a fix for a possible buffer overflow in key/value pair reading. The sample console client no longer requires gtk.
