+- Fix linking to the `ColorSync` framework on macOS 10.7.

 # 0.26.0 (2021-12-01)
 
 - Update `raw-window-handle` to `v0.4`. This is _not_ a breaking change, we still implement `HasRawWindowHandle` from `v0.3`, see [rust-windowing/raw-window-handle#74](https://github.com/rust-windowing/raw-window-handle/pull/74).

-To ensure compatibility with older MacOS systems, winit links to
-CGDisplayCreateUUIDFromDisplayID through the CoreGraphics framework.
-However, under certain setups this function is only available to be linked
-through the newer ColorSync framework. So, winit provides the
-`WINIT_LINK_COLORSYNC` environment variable which can be set to `1` or `true`
-while compiling to enable linking via ColorSync.
