New release 2.1.3.4

After a long pause, a new version 2.1.3.4 has been released. It is a maintenance release for the 2.1.3 branch.
As 2.1.3 is the highest ranked belofte release on CCRL, adding a new binary for macOS and linux is useful.
It should be a few elo points stronger, but nothing important. It has up to 5% more NPS than the existing 2.1.3 version.
