Ann: SWI-Prolog 5.6.32

Hi,

I've uploaded SWI-Prolog 5.6.32.  Various small things, but the main
reason is the extra check that caused JPL to abort with a fatal error.

Other changes worth mentioning are some extensions to PlDoc, one of them
allowing for images. The HTTP library has an important fix for users
with locales that cause dates to use non-ascii characters.

There is a new debugging tool for showing exceptions and trapping the
tracer on exceptions, also if the exception is caught (debugging caught
exceptions was complicated before this).

See `edit exceptions' menu, currently in PceEmacs Prolog mode and
plwin.exe console.  Also ?- prolog_ide(open_exceptions).  After
creating the distribution I noticed it comes up far too big the
first time.  Just resize as it remembers position and size.

	Enjoy --- Jan
