WHDD for Slackware

WHDD-2.1 is released!

Added some main extra features:
1. New linear copying strategy, named 'skipfail', that jumps over bad blocks (number of blocks may be entered by user);
2. Journal file of session of copying (named by model and serial number of HDD);
3. Configuration file .whddrc, that may be added (or not, if use defaults) manually by user into user home dir.

.whddrc example:

copy.api.suggest=posix
copy.read_strategy.suggest=plain
copy.use_journal.suggest=no
copy.skip_blocks.suggest=1
