v0.9.0

Thanks everyone for your patience with this long overdue release!

There has been a good chunk of work done on imgui-rs since the last release. For a complete list, see the CHANGELOG.markdown in the main repository

A few key changes:

Building everything of Ui

The aim is to make the API more consistent and easier to discover functinality by having widgets be created consistently.

For example, previously a button was made by ui.button(...) but a slider made by imgui::Slider::new(...).build(ui) - meaning both appeared in different sections of the docs/auto-completion, so easy to miss. Now a slider is now made via ui.slider(...) also

This means some commonly used widgets like Window change - although a tiny bit tedious, it is hopefully a fairly stight-forward syntax change, which can be done with some search-and-replace (change imgui::Window::new(...) to ui.window(...) and remove the ui argument from build)

This is still somewhat a work-in-progress (some items may still be created via separate builder structs), but the aim is to transition everything to Ui

Docking

The upstream docking branch is now available, enabled via the docking feature. Higher-level, safe Rust bindings for this will come in a future release, for now these can be used via the imgui-sys crate

Various version updates

Dear ImGui is now 1.86 - this isn't the latest release, but it was better to release now and get imgui-rs back to a more regular release cycle

Similarly there is updates to latest glium, winit
