Code Review for Kodi 21.3 Release

I've reviewed the changes in this PR. Overall, this is a clean version bump from 21.2 to 21.3, but there are a few items to address:

✅ Version Changes Look Good

version.txt - The version bump is consistent:

• VERSION_MINOR: 2 → 3 (line 10)
• VERSION_CODE: 21.2.0 → 21.3.0 (line 12)
• ADDON_API: 21.2.0 → 21.3.0 (line 13)

All version numbers are properly synchronized.

✅ Splash Image Updated

media/splash.jpg - The splash screen has been updated to show "21.3" and "OMEGA" branding, which is appropriate for this release.

⚠️ Issues in Metadata File

tools/Linux/kodi.metainfo.xml.in - There are a couple of concerns:

1. Release Date Issue (line 81): The release entry shows date="2025-10-28", which is today's date. However, as the PR author humorously noted, this appears to be automatically generated. You should verify this is the actual intended release date. If the release is happening today, this is fine. If not, it should be updated to the actual release date.

2. Missing URL for rc2 (line 86): The 21.0~rc2-Omega release entry is missing a URL while the rc1 entry below it has one. This was already noted by Copilot's review. For consistency with the rest of the release history, consider adding:

   <release date="2024-03-18" version="21.0~rc2-Omega" type="development"><url>https://kodi.tv/article/kodi-21-0-omega-rc2/</url></release>

   (You'll need to verify if this URL actually exists on kodi.tv)

📊 Additional Changes

The diff also shows significant updates to controller add-ons (game.controller.default and game.controller.keyboard):

• Version bumps for controller add-ons
• Translation updates and cleanups
• Removal of some obsolete language files

These appear to be part of the standard release process and look appropriate.

Summary

The core version bump is solid and consistent. The only items that need attention are:

1. Confirming the release date (2025-10-28) is correct
2. Optionally adding the missing URL for rc2 release entry
