Due to a bug in the Moshi JSON serialization library, language detection was not possible in certain cases. (#144, #147)

The library can now be used as a Java 9 module. Thanks to @Marcono1234 for helping with the implementation. (#120, #138)
The new method LanguageDetectorBuilder.withLowAccuracyMode() has been introduced. By activating it, detection accuracy for short text is reduced in favor of a smaller memory footprint and faster detection performance. (#136)

The new method LanguageDetector.destroy() has been introduced that frees internal resources to prevent memory leaks within application server deployments. (#110, #116)
Language model loading performance has been improved by creating a manually optimized internal thread pool. This replaces the coroutines used in the previous release. (#116)
