Financy v0.8.0

💰 Financy v0.8.0 — Password-protected files & smarter debt payments

This release puts your data behind a passphrase and makes paying off debts as
flexible as posting recurring transactions. Payee fields everywhere now
autocomplete from your history, too.

✨ Highlights

🔒 Password encryption

• A .financy file can now be protected with a passphrase. The document is
  encrypted at rest with XChaCha20-Poly1305 and an Argon2id-derived key, so a
  lost or leaked file is unreadable and tamper-evident without your password.
• Set a password when creating a file, or add/change/remove one later via
  File → Set Password….
• Encrypted documents use manual save (Cmd/Ctrl-S) and prompt you to save unsaved
  changes before closing; your data is only decrypted in memory while the file is
  open, never persisted to disk in plaintext.
• A forgotten passphrase is unrecoverable — there is no backdoor.

🤝 Match debt payments

• Paying an installment now opens the same review dialog as recurring transactions:
  post a new payment, or link an installment to an existing transaction that
  already paid it (re-pointed onto the debt's liability so the balance stays correct)
  instead of always posting a fresh one.
• Handles installments already paid manually or imported, and amounts that aren't
  exact.

🔧 Other changes

• Payee autocomplete — every payee field (Add Transaction, Bulk Add, Recurring,
  Debts) is now a searchable dropdown that suggests matching payees from your history
  as you type. Keep typing to filter and pick an existing payee, or enter a brand-new
  one inline.
