LilyPond 2.1.9

LilyPond 2.1.9 has a new mechanism for adding lyrics to melodies. It
is now possible to have different melismatic variations for each
stanza. Other attractions are bugfixes in the documentation and
ottavas.

NEWS.txt:

   * There is a new mechanism for putting lyrics to melodies.  With
     this mechanism, `LyricVoice's can be put melodies individually,
     allowing for different melismatic sections in every `LyricVoice'.
     See `input/regression/lyric-combine-new.ly'.

   * Formatting of ottava brackets has been improved.

   * Bar lines may now be dotted.
