Changes in Pannellum 2.2.0
--------------------------

New Features:

 - An API has been added instead of just a standalone viewer; the API should be
   considered experimental at this point and may be subject to change

   (used by the Ricoh Theta S)
 - Optional fade animation for transitioning between scenes using the
   `sceneFadeDuration` parameter

   for a specific period of time before stopping
 - Hot spot debug parameter to assist with positioning hot spots
   (`hotSpotDebug`)
 - Parameter to disable keyboard zooming (`keyboardZoom`)

Improvements:

 - Much better equirectangular video support using Video.js
 - High-DPI support
 - Unified configuration files; tour configuration files can now be used
   directly with the `config` parameter

   instead of a web server
