 This release includes the following features and fixes:
  - The `unloadwallet` RPC is now synchronous, meaning that it blocks until the
    wallet is fully unloaded.
+ - Fixed a bug where wallet handles were not being freed correctly, effectively causing
+   a memory leak when many wallets were called via `loadwallet` and `unloadwallet`.
+ - Better error reporting for parsing errors in configuration files.
