New Quicklisp client available

I've updated the Quicklisp client to version 2016-01-21. There are a few new things:

• Fix for issue #116, so"asdf" is now ignored as a system to be bundled instead of signaling an error. Thanks to Dimitri Fontaine for inspiration and some code for fixing this.
• Merged pull request #127, which has some small fixes courtesy of Attila Lendvai
• Merged pull request #124, which adds recognition of URL schemes to fetching, and a special variable to control what function is used for what scheme. This feature moves Quicklisp closer to out-of-beta; many thanks to SANO Masatoshi for contributing it.

To get this update, use (ql:update-client) and restart your session.
