gephgui-slint-app v0.2.0

v0.2.0 release with some new features and improvements.

New features (based on v0.1.0):

• Embed Inter as default font for western letter texts (none western texts fall back to OS default font, e.g. Chinese), giving a better UI appearance in Windows
• Multi-language support (English, 简体中文, 繁體中文), the localization architecture is established for an easy language expansion
• Supports clicking Extend, Upgrade and Manage Account buttons to jump to geph official site in browser for Plus purchase or managerment.
• Some UI layout adjustments for future development planning
• Synced with the latest Geph5 official release

Unavailable / planned features:

• Geph remote service status
• Detailed connection status display
• Account register and delete
• Account secret and invite code display
• Geph news fetch and display
• Debug

Notes:

• Something negative about v0.2.0 is that its RAM usage increases by ~30MB compared with v0.1.0, since the Slint's rendering of none western characters (e.g. Chinese) seems to consume more memory than expected.
• The MacOS pkgs don't have a developer sign (since I do not pay Apple for this), so you should expect a security warning and need to manually lift the restriction to install.
• The MacOS Intel version is not fully tested since I don't have an Intel Mac.
• Only offers an x86-64 version of Windows installer since the Skia renderer chosen for Slint no longer supports Windows-ia32.
• Linux version is not available, please try to tweak the codes and build for your own as needed.
