Cyrus IMAPd 2.3.7 Released

After much experimenting, I decided there was something wrong with my
databases, especially since dropping back to v2.3.3 didn't fix it.  So I
wiped everything out (fortunately it's a test system), recreated the
mailboxes and put messages in them, repeated the experiment with v2.3.3,
and everything was OK.  Then I upgraded to v2.3.7 and it still behaved
correctly.  So there is no problem with seen state and v2.3.7.
