vash/History.md

v0.8.1

* Fix numerous "unfixable" bugs
* Runtime is now `require('vash/runtime')`

* Simplify build system to be npm-driven
* [`debug`](https://github.com/visionmedia/debug) module used throughout lexer/parser/codegen
* Completely new AST format
* Markup parsing is now more strict, and vash knows about attributes, quotes, etc
* Much more internally.
