Flowlight 0.7.6

What's new in 0.7.6

• The menu bar says Flowlight again. With “run in the background” on, the app never became the active application, so another app's name stayed beside the Apple logo and Flowlight's own menus were out of reach. It now owns the menu bar while a window is open and steps back once the last one closes.
• An upgrade no longer strands capture on the sampler. Replacing a filter extension left over from the previous version takes longer than the reconnect attempts allowed, so the app gave up, fell back to nettop and reported that the extension hadn't answered — while macOS was still replacing it. The version is checked at launch, the wait is explained, and capture returns to the extension by itself.
