v1.4.0 — The Favorites Overhaul & UI Polish

v1.4.0 is LIVE! 🍃

This update overhauls the Favorites Menu and polishes the UI based on your feedback!

✨ New in v1.4.0:

📖 Paginated Favorites Menu: Press X to browse your favorites 8 per page with smooth auto-scrolling (same UX as the Search screen).
🔤 Alphabetical Sorting: Favorites auto-sort A–Z at boot for instant scanning.
👑 Expanded 22-Item Roster: Bell bag, Bell voucher, 99,000 Bells, gold roses, cherry-blossom petal, pearl, gold bars, all 6 golden tools, and both crowns.
🍃 Embedded Homebrew Icon (community request #1): The leaf PNG is now embedded in the .nro, so the Homebrew Menu shows the proper icon instead of the default.
🏷️ In-App Title Bump: Title bar now reads "ACNH Save Editor v1.4".

🔧 Fixed:

📐 Search footer overlap — results reduced to 6 per page so nothing clips.
🔢 Search pagination page-jump calculation — no more skipped items.

It still runs 100% natively on the Switch, handles all AES/Murmur3 encryption and hashing automatically, and backs up your files before every single write.

📥 Installation:

1. Download acnh_editor_v1.4.0.zip below.
2. Extract the switch folder to the root of your SD card.
3. Launch via the Homebrew Menu (hold R while launching a title for full RAM access).

Always keep backups of your save files before editing!
