net-libs/libtorrent-rasterbar-2.0.2 version bump
https://github.com/arvidn/libtorrent/releases

Reproducible: Always

Unsure if we're offering the 2.0.x branch yet, as far as I'm aware many packages aren't ready to use it (may need to be slotted).

1.2.x is still maintained upstream, currently on 1.2.12 released last month which I guess should be bumped here.

2.0.x is not used anywhere yet.

net-p2p/qbittorrent-9999 can be build with net-libs/libtorrent-rasterbar-2.x.x

The HUGE benefit of the new version is support for BitTorrent v2 and hybrid .torrent files.

Let me kindly ask you why not leave the bug open so users can track its status?

The addition of libtorrent-rasterbar-2.x will still happen sooner or later, won't it?

Thanks.
