The DM32 and DM42 documenatation share a lot of material, but cannot be kept strictly identical. For example, the keyboard of the DM42 is much closer to what DB48X does, meaning that you can use a DM42 without a keyboard overlay. That is not really true with the DM32.

Add a mechanism that makes it possible to have machine-specific sections in the manual.

This release implements the last remaining user-oriented RPL data type,
unit objects. However, unit operations are not implemented yet.
There is no unit arithmetic nor unit conversions yet.

New features:
- Multi-line rendering of result level (#455)
- Render graphic objects in graphical rendering mode (#453)
- DM32 documentation is now distinct from DM42 (#450)
- Improvements to `FIX` rounding (#445, #446)
- Save editor state when using EXIT (#439)
- Add images in web documentation, skip them in on-line help (#438)
- Fixed-base based numbers now enabled on DB50X (#432)
- `Integrate` automatically enables approximations (#415)
- New `MinimumSignificantDigits` (`DIG`) setting (#412)
- Add `CursorBlinkRate` setting (#407)
- Unit objects and menus, but no arithmetic or conversions yet (#16)

Bug fixes:
- Graphical mode for stack rendering (still showing as "grey" intentionally)
- Computation of complex log / power when not in radians (#452)
- Merge the two "Help" sections in the documentation (#451)
- Do not emit error for `"ABC" 5 *` with `NumericResults` on (#447)
- Allow `PowerOff` and `Save` to work in Alpha mode (#444)
- Show `Help` as the command name when help topic not found (#440)
- Fixing in ordering of command-line history (#439)
- Avoid `Invalid digit for base` error for `1E6` (#422)
- Show correct symbol, `∡`, for Alpha-Shift-EEX (#421)
- Update menus when a setting changes (#416)

Improvements:
- Add `[]` inserter in matrix menu (#456)
- Leave one pixel blank on right of stack (#454)
- Machine-specific variations in the documentation (#450)
- Many minor changes and corrections in documentation
- Improvement to storytelling file (#448)
- Link DB48X YouTube playlist from documentation
- Update acknowledgements section
- Improve rendering of shift keys in built-in help (#437)
- Increase maximum size for big numbers (#426)
- Accept `LogGamma` as alternative spelling for `lgamma` (#426)
- Directly execute menu functions in direct mode (#420)
- Add `Authors` section in documentation (#419)
- Make on-line help accessible on GitHub and GitLab (#418)
- Rename simulator to `db48x` (#417)
- Add `∫` to `IntegrationMenu` entries (#414)
