Dropped Ubuntu 14.10 Utopic support

Ubuntu 14.10 (Utopic Unicorn) had been reached End of Life (EOL) on July 23, 2015. Thus, we decide to end of support for Ubuntu 14.10. Groonga PPA for Ubuntu 14.10 will no longer update. Previous version (5.0.5) is the final version of support Ubuntu Utopic. We recommend to upgrade to newer version (such as 15.04).

Vector column became more easy to use. For example, reference vector column supports offline index construction, and becomes possible to search --filter argument with @ operator for select command.
