v4.0.0-rc.1

We're happy to give you early access to our software so you can help us make it better!
These versions have a different configuration so that downgrading doesn't cause any problems.
So you can safely use both the regular version and the pre-release client at the same time.
We've enabled additional checks in the beta client because we're actively testing. You might occasionally see crashes, but don't worry! If this happens, please report it – the crash details will be in the log file at "$TMPDIR/OpenCloud Beta-crash.log".
