Docs

Version 1.4.0 introduces hot reloads for malware signature changes. The design is with concurrency carefully considered using an implementation of reference accounting for worker threads as to ensure no interruptions as well as safe garbage collection given cgo.

Real time monitoring no longer requires a service restart to recognise those changes.
