& more
## New

- 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.

- Fix build warnings, including deprecations
- Removed deprecated `Thread` constructor
- Fix WaveShare S3 display: Some displays would show a white screen at 12MHz, so I'm putting it back to the
official config values.
- Use `tt::app::` functions to start/stop apps and get current app(context) instead of using loader everywhere
- Removed `tt_service_loader.*` from TactilityC
- Created `tt_app_stop()` for TactilityC
- Bumped version to 0.3.0 to prepare for upcoming release
- Create `Include/` folder for all main projects
- Fix some issues here and there (found while moving things)
- All includes are now in `Tactility/` subfolder and must be included with that prefix. This fixes issues with clashing POSIX headers (e.g. `<semaphore.h>` versus Tactility's `Semaphore.h`)
- Refactor the way apps work: Instead of a C interface, they are now C++ classes. The main reasoning is that attaching data to an app was cumbersome. Having different implementations for different kinds of apps was cumbersome too. (3 or 4 layers of manifest nesting for the TactilityC project)
- External apps are still written in C, but they get a createData/destroyData in their manifest, so:
- External apps now have their own manifest.
- All functions in the original AppManifest are removed and replaced by a single `createApp` function
- External apps now automatically register (each app individually!) when they run the first time. As a side-effect they become visible in the `AppList` app!
- Adapted all apps for the new interface.
- Adapted all internal logic for these changes (Gui, ViewPort, Loader, AppContext, AppInstance, etc.)
- Rewrote parts of Loader to use std::shared_ptr to make the code much safer.
- Added a refcount check for the `AppInstance` and `App` at the end of their lifecycle. Show warning if refcount is too high.
- WiFi Connect app is now hidden by default, but accessible at the bottom of the WiFi Manage app when WiFi is turned on.
- WiFi service now turns on WiFi when calling connect() and WiFi is not on.
- Removed `blocking` option for `service::loader::startApp()`. This feature was unused and complex.
- Various apps: Moved private headers into Private/ folder.
- Various apps: created start() function for easy starting.
- Added documentation to all TactilityC APIs
- Refactored various `enum` into `class enum`
- Refactor M5Stack `initBoot()` (but VBus is still 0V for some reason)
