+* fixed the ngspice library loading for recent cffi
+* fixed simulation aborting due to a message from newer ngspice
+* fixes for Spice parser
+* added support for Pint unit library

 An issue was found with NgSpice Shared, we must `setlocale(LC_NUMERIC, "C");` see https://sourceforge.net/p/ngspice/bugs/490/
