v5.29.0

Highlights

• 🚀 New: update Homebridge, the UI and your plugins all in one go, with a single restart at the end (beta)
• 🩹 Matter fixes: accessory status keeps updating after a Homebridge restart, lights switch on properly when only brightness is set, and thermostat limits can reach 0°
• 💾 Restoring a backup works again from both the setup wizard and the .hbfx uploader
• 🔐 Signing out, session expiry, and refused token refreshes now affect only the browser they happen in, instead of logging out every device on the account
• ✅ The Homebridge v2 readiness check now judges plugin support correctly and can skip the modal when everything is compatible
• ⚙️ Many smaller reliability fixes across accessories, the terminal, child bridge restarts, the config editor, and the dashboard
