core22 0.0.18 widespread rollout on Mon 15 Nov

[JohnChodera]

Hi all!

We're planning to roll out core22 0.0.18 to all FAH projects on Mon 15 Nov.

This version is built from OpenMM 7.6.0, the latest and most performant release of OpenMM: http://openmm.org

We have used CUDA Toolkit 11.2 for these builds in order to support the latest, fastest NVIDIA GPUs. This may result in older GPUs or drivers that are no longer supported by CUDA 11.2 to fall back to OpenCL instead; you may need to update your NVIDIA driver to one that supports CUDA 11.2 (linux >= 460.32.03, windows >=461.09) if this happens.

We broke CUDA support for the Linux core build in 0.0.16 by not including trailing version digits on shipped CUDA shared libraries. This has now been fixed.

Huge thanks to David Dotson, Peter Eastman, and all the FAH volunteers who helped us test this release!
