What changes does this PR require?

This PR needlessly breaks compatibility with a package we currently distribute.

Manuel Delgado, one of the authors of sgpviz, will be at the upcoming GAP Days in Siegen, and I talked with him about preparing a new release of his package there. Assuming that works out, we can probably merge this PR (after it has been rebased)

@ManuelAFDelgado removed SuPeRfail in gap-packages/sgpviz@fd16cad - now waiting for this to appear in the next release.

This PR also needs to be rebased

I have rebased it now.

Also fixed the hpc/serialize.c code that made the tests for HPC-GAP fail now, rebased again.

The FR and ZeroMQInterface packages still use READ_COMMAND. See gap-packages/fr#23 and gap-packages/ZeroMQInterface#12

Resolved in ZeroMQ, but not yet in FR. @laurentbartholdi would you mind merging gap-packages/fr#23 and making a new release of FR, please?

Rebased again...

Thanks to @laurentbartholdi - FR package is released and picked up for the redistribution. Now subject to passing tests, this PR may be merged as soon as the new FR release will appear in the packages-master.tar.gz archive.

Awesome! Perhaps @laurentbartholdi would also consider looking at the four open PRs for float and merging these, followed by a release? :-)

@laurentbartholdi fair enough. I posted your remark to the relevant PR, gap-packages/float#27 and also added some replies; perhaps we can discuss there?

As https://github.com/gap-system/gap/wiki/Package-updates-status shows, new Float and FR has been picked up. They are now contained in packages-master.tar.gz. This can be now merged. @fingolfin requested changes - please update your review and merge then!
