Summary description: APA 7 citation rendering for Traditional Chinese prose

Announcement text:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

biblatex-apa-zh adapts APA 7 citation rendering to Traditional Chinese prose. It 
is a companion package for biblatex-apa, which ships localisation files for more 
than twenty languages, but none for Chinese.
The package separates two things that are easy to conflate. The language of the 
running text determines citation punctuation, and is set by a package option: 
Chinese prose takes full-width parentheses and commas. The language of each 
cited work determines its name strings and the punctuation of its bibliography 
entry, and is read from the langid field of that entry, so a single reference 
list may mix Chinese and Western works. Unlike the autolang mechanism of 
biblatex, it does not require babel or polyglossia, which makes it usable in the 
common xeCJK setup.
The strings and bibliography punctuation follow the traditional Chinese academic 
convention as used in Taiwan. Simplified Chinese conventions differ and are not 
covered by this release. The package ships a test suite that asserts on the 
rendered output and exits non-zero on any mismatch.
