kawa 3.1 released

[Per Bothner]

Kawa 3.1 is now officially (and belatedly) available.

No major new features since 3.0, but various small improvements.
Most importantly, the web-site is updated.
For a list of the most important changes see:

The release is available from the usual places:

ftp://ftp.gnu.org/pub/gnu/kawa/kawa-3.1.tar.gz (Source release)
ftp://ftp.gnu.org/pub/gnu/kawa/kawa-3.1.zip (Binary release)

https://www.gnu.org/software/kawa/index.html (Home page and general documentation)

Hello Per,

I just noticed that compared to the Kawa 3.0 binary release, the Kawa
3.1 binary release is missing the "bin/kawa" shell wrapper.

I tried submitting a PR to Homebrew to update the package for macOS
users, but the current script it not gonna work because it expects the
shell wrapper to be available.

Looks like a Makefile problem: 'make all' builds bin/kawa,
but 'make kawa-$(VERSION).zip' does not build or require.

Should be easy to fix - need to add the right dependencies.

Re: kawa 3.1 released [JavaFX help needed]

[Per Bothner]

I've fixed the missing kawa-shell-script problem, but ran into some
issues with --browse-manual that I'd like to fix before I make a 3.1.1 update release.
I've fixed most of the problems, but there is one where could use some JavaFX help.

Using the latest git source, try either one of:
   doc/browse-kawa-manual
or:
   kawa --browse-manual=javafx
(which basically runs doc/browse-kawa-manual).

This opens a window that uses JavaFX WebView to browse the documentation.
It mostly works ok, except for one annoyance: The browser does not fill
the entirety of the window. This is most noticeable when resizing the window.

Suggestions?  (Removing the width: and height: keyword arguments doesn't help.)
