🌟 What's New in v0.0.3

🎨 Rebranding & UI Refinements

• Unified App Title: Updated all window headers, settings sidebars, and system tray tooltips to MagicToys.
• Enhanced Logo Prominence: Doubled main sidebar logo image size to 44px and added a matching 28px header brand icon.
• +2 Step App-Wide Font Size Increase: Upgraded typography across history cards, preview text, search inputs, tab headers, and navigation menus (+2px across all Slint screens).
• 100% Crisp Font Sharpness: Replaced transparent window background with opaque #0a0a0a background, enabling GPU subpixel font antialiasing (FemtoVG/Winit) for crisp text.

⚡ Reliability & Performance Improvements

• Anti-Flicker Fix for X11/GNOME: Changed _NET_WM_STATE_SKIP_TASKBAR property configuration from APPEND to REPLACE mode, eliminating window state bloat and Mutter compositor redraw flicker.
• Persistent Clipboard Context Manager: Built a thread-safe PERSISTENT_CLIPBOARD manager (Lazy<Mutex<Option<Clipboard>>>) to prevent X11 connection churn and selection loss.
• Separated Read/Write Clipboard Engine:
  • Reading: Reads external app selections dynamically using fresh handlers.
  • Writing: Uses persistent context so MagicToys retains clipboard selection ownership without dropping.
• Emoji Paste Focus Sequence: Updated emoji paste flow to verify target window focus settlement before setting selection, ensuring active applications don't overwrite emojis with old clipboard data.
• First-Press Launch Fix: Added window state initialization on cold start so Alt + V opens on the very first keystroke.
