Fixes

Full Changelog: v0.10.0...v0.10.1

The next release is here!

This is one of the biggest releases yet, bringing some of the most requested playback features to fooyin. The major additions are DSP support with a built-in DSP suite and a new equaliser, configurable crossfading and fading for track changes and seeking, and Discord Rich Presence integration.

There is even more in terms of improvements too. This includes playback queue persistence, incremental autoplaylist updates, per-widget configuration, new scripting features, richer formatting support across the interface and for more widgets, improved artwork tools, and a long list of playback, metadata, and UI fixes.

A huge thanks to everyone who contributed through code, translations, testing, bug reports, and feedback.

A later, smaller release is already in the works, which will include proper ReplayGain support for Opus, and inline editing of metadata in playlist columns.

Stay tuned!
