- WiFi code cleanup
- When WifiConnect opens and SSID is filled in, automatically focus on the password field
- When no touch screen is present, toolbar close buttons should be automatically selected
- When `device.py` selects a device, print it on screen

## Other
- Remove unused build scripts
- Added `AppHub` app
- Added `AppHubDetails` app
- Added `cJSON` dependency
- Renamed `AppSim` module to `FirmwareSim`
- Added extra `tt::app::alertdialg::start()`
- Renamed `addApp()`, `removeApp()`, `findAppById()` and `getApps()` to `addAppManifest()`, `removeAppManifest()`, `findAppManifestById()` and `getAppManifests()`

- Added `tt::network::EspHttpClient` as a thread-safe wrapper around `esp_http_client`
- Added `tt::network::http::download()` to download files
- Added `tt::network::ntp::isSynced()`
- When time is synced, the timestamp is stored in NVS flash. On boot, it is restored. This helps SSL connections when doing a quick reset: when WiFi reconnects, the user doesn't have to wait for NTP sync before SSL works.
- Added `tt::json::Reader` as a `cJSON` wrapper
- Added `int64_t` support for `Preferences`

## App state
Improved app state management in `LoaderService` and `GuiService`:
- Re-ordered some of the state transitions
- Hardened `GuiService` for repeated events (that might trigger a re-render of an app that's already rendered)
- Validate state transitions in `LoaderService` and crash if an app transitions from the wrong state to the next one.
## LoaderService
- Removed `tt::loader::` functions and expose `LoaderService` interface publicly.
- Implement `stopAll()` and `stopAll(id)` which stops all instances of an app, including any apps that were launched by it.
- Rename `stop()` functions to `stopTop()`
- Created `stopTop(id)` which only stops the top-most app when the app id matches.
- Moved `loader::LoaderEvent` to `loader::LoaderService::Event`
- Changed app instance `std::stack` to `std::vector`
## Improvements
- `ElfApp`: error 22 now shows a hint that `main()` might be missing
- Starting, installing and uninstalling apps now stops any running app (and its children) on the stack
## Bugfixes
- `HttpdReq` out of memory issue now shows an error message and doesn't crash anymore (this would happen on devices without PSRAM with WiFi active, when an app was installed)
- `GuiService::hideApp()` lock should not wait for timeout and now waits indefinitely
- `Buildscript/release-sdk-current.sh` deletes the previous local release before building a new one
## Code correctness
- App classes were made `final`
- Apps that had a `void start()` now have a `LaunchId start()`
- `tt::app::State`: renamed `Started` to `Created` and `Stopped` to `Destroyed` to properly reflect earlier name changes

- App loading at boot now properly parses the manifest files of external apps
- Properly lock both source and destination locations during app install
- Remove LVGL path variants from `AppPaths` and `ServicePaths`
- Removed `xPath` base classes for apps and services. There's now `AppPaths` and `ServicePaths`.
- Renamed app and service paths: "data" and "system" paths are now "user data" and "assets"
- Improved UI/UX of various WiFi apps to make it compatible with Cardputer.
- Improved UI/UX of Serial Console to make it compatible with Cardputer.
- Boot app now shows a smaller logo on Cardputer
- CrashDiagnostics app: Use different text if no touch screen is present
### Cardputer:

- Toolbar: fixed margin/padding of all buttons, fixed alignment of all content
- Improved layout/UI of many apps
### Other
- Update LVGL to 9.3.0 official release (was dev version)
- Implement `UiScale` in `hal::Configuration`: small screens with no touch can now opt for a more optimized experience (e.g. Cardputer, Waveshare 1.47, Waveshare 1.3", etc.)

- Added various ESP32 GCC wrappers to wrap LVGL functions (with manipulations for small screen devices)
- Moved `Launcher` assets to `assets/` subfolder
- Optimized `Toolbar` for small screen devices
- Stop showing `system/` partition in `FileBrowser` because it's read-only and not very useful. Created `config::SHOW_SYSTEM_PARTITION` to override this behaviour.
- Hide apps when their required hardware isn't available (I2C, UART, PowerDevice)
- Fix for `CYD-2432S032C` DPI setting
- Add app path get() functions to `TactilityC`
- Improved `Dispatcher` and `DispatcherThread`
- Improved `PubSub` (type safety)
- Created test for `DispatcherThread` and `PubSub`
- Save properties files on app exit (various apps) by posting it to the main dispatcher (fixes UI hanging briefly on app exit)
- Fixed bug with `SystemSettings` being read from the wrong file path.
- `loadPropertiesFile()` now uses `file::readLines()` instead of doing that manually
- Increased timer task stack size (required due to issues when reading a properties file for the very first time)
- General cleanup
- Created `EstimatedPower` driver that uses an ADC pin to measure voltage and estimate the battery charge that is left.

- `DevelopmentSettings` is now in `settings` namespace/folder (moved from service)
## Launcher
- Launcher now has optional power button to show
- Launcher layout improvements
- Removed text from Launcher (translations with larger amounts of text did not fit small device formats)
## T-Lora Pager
- Implement power off (created `BQ25896` driver)
- Implemented haptics (created `DRV2605` driver project) and buzz on startup
- Reversed scroll wheel
- Created `TloraEncoder` device and relocated its logic from `TloraKeyboard`
- Disabled SPIRAM test to save 0.5 seconds of boot time (current boot time is very slow)
- Update `ST7796` esp_lcd driver to v1.3.4
- Fixed keyboard bug: delete queue in destructor
- Fixed driver dependencies: Avoiding usage of global static shared_ptr. Properly constructor-inject everywhere, or use `tt::hal::findDevices()`
- I2C configuration is now immutable (you cannot disable it anymore from the I2C Settings app, as it would break crucial drivers)
- Renamed I2C and UART subsystems to "Internal"
## Drivers
- On/off interface added to `PowerDevice`
- Created `tt::hal::Configuration.createDevices`, which is intended to replace all custom create calls for display, keyboard, etc.
- Created `EncoderDevice` as a `Device` subtype
## Other Improvements
- Changed `findDevices(type, function)` into a templatized function.
- Improved SD card mounting
## Fixes
- Show Screenshot app again
- Fixed Statusbar: some updates were allowed to time out and fail silently: When the Statusbar service would do a state update, the LVGL statusbar would never get updated due to this timeout.
- Fixed memory leaks in all `createSdCard()` functions (in most board implementations)
## New features
- Implement translations for apps
- Created `tt::settings::setLanguage` and `::getLanguage()`

- Created a "Region & Language" app and moved the timezone setting there.
## Other changes
- Change `/data` and `/system` filesystem sector size from 4096 to 512 bytes to allow for more small files (60+ files of 4kB were over the limit of 256kB for the filesystem)
- Increased size of `/data` and `/system`
- Moved `tt::time::*` to `tt::settings`
- Removed the timezone setting from the "Time & Date" setting app
- Reverse encoder direction of Lilygo T-Lora Pager
- Improved partability of `Time.cpp` (removed separate set of functions for PC/sim)
## New
- Read property files with `PropertiesFile`
- Support `boot.properties` so the user can specify the launcher app and an optional app to start after the launcher finishes. (see `BootProperties.cpp`)
- Create registry for CPU affinity and update code to make use of it
- `AppRegistration` and `ServiceRegistration` now also ensure that the `/data` directories always exist for all apps
- `Notes` is now the default app for opening text files. `TextViewer` is removed entirely. Created `tt::app::notes::start(path)` function.
- WiFi settings moved from NVS to properties file.
- Specify `*.ap.properties` file on the SD card for automatic WiFi settings import on start-up.
- Added `file::getLock(path)` and `file::withLock(path, function)` to do safe file operations on SD cards
## Improvements
