- Created test for `DispatcherThread` and `PubSub`
- Save properties files on app exit (various apps) by posting it to the main dispatcher (fixes UI hanging briefly on app exit)
- Fixed bug with `SystemSettings` being read from the wrong file path.
- `loadPropertiesFile()` now uses `file::readLines()` instead of doing that manually
- Increased timer task stack size (required due to issues when reading a properties file for the very first time)
- General cleanup
- Created `EstimatedPower` driver that uses an ADC pin to measure voltage and estimate the battery charge that is left.

## Launcher
- Launcher now has optional power button to show

- Disabled SPIRAM test to save 0.5 seconds of boot time (current boot time is very slow)
- Update `ST7796` esp_lcd driver to v1.3.4
- Fixed keyboard bug: delete queue in destructor
- Fixed driver dependencies: Avoiding usage of global static shared_ptr. Properly constructor-inject everywhere, or use `tt::hal::findDevices()`
- I2C configuration is now immutable (you cannot disable it anymore from the I2C Settings app, as it would break crucial drivers)
- Renamed I2C and UART subsystems to "Internal"
## Drivers
- On/off interface added to `PowerDevice`
- Created `tt::hal::Configuration.createDevices`, which is intended to replace all custom create calls for display, keyboard, etc.
- Created `EncoderDevice` as a `Device` subtype
## Other Improvements
- Changed `findDevices(type, function)` into a templatized function.
- Improved SD card mounting
## Fixes
- Show Screenshot app again
- Fixed Statusbar: some updates were allowed to time out and fail silently: When the Statusbar service would do a state update, the LVGL statusbar would never get updated due to this timeout.
- Fixed memory leaks in all `createSdCard()` functions (in most board implementations)
## New features
- Implement translations for apps
- Created `tt::settings::setLanguage` and `::getLanguage()`

- Moved `tt::time::*` to `tt::settings`
- Removed the timezone setting from the "Time & Date" setting app

- Create registry for CPU affinity and update code to make use of it
- `AppRegistration` and `ServiceRegistration` now also ensure that the `/data` directories always exist for all apps
- `Notes` is now the default app for opening text files. `TextViewer` is removed entirely. Created `tt::app:🎶:start(path)` function.
- WiFi settings moved from NVS to properties file.
- Specify `*.ap.properties` file on the SD card for automatic WiFi settings import on start-up.
- Added `file::getLock(path)` and `file::withLock(path, function)` to do safe file operations on SD cards

- LVGL can now be stopped and (re)started on the fly
- Fixed issues with restarting Gui and Statusbar services
- Refactored `Gui` service to be class and renamed `Gui` to `GuiService`

- Bumped version to 0.3.0 to prepare for upcoming release
- Added `tt::hal::Device` and functions (de)register devices and search for them.
- Refactored apps: `Power` and `Display` settings apps now use the device API to find devices.
- Implemented the new API for all existing drivers for all devices, including the simulator.
- Updated HAL Configuration to return `std::shared_ptr` instead of raw pointers.
- Added test project for headless tests and implemented tests for the new code.
- Create `Include/` folder for all main projects
- Fix some issues here and there (found while moving things)
- All includes are now in `Tactility/` subfolder and must be included with that prefix. This fixes issues with clashing POSIX headers (e.g. `<semaphore.h>` versus Tactility's `Semaphore.h`)
FreeRTOS handles were stored plainly and they were deleted in the destructor of classes.
This meant that if a class were to be copied, the destructor would be called twice on the same handles and lead to double-free.
Seha on Discord suggested to fix this by using `std::unique_ptr` with a custom deletion function.
The changes affect:
- Thread
- Semaphore
- Mutex
- StreamBuffer
- Timer
- MessageQueue
- EventFlag
Thread changes:
- Removal of the hack with the `Data` struct

- The C functions were relocated to static class members
PubSub changes:
- Refactored pubsub into class
- Renamed files to `PubSub` instead of `Pubsub`
- `PubSubSubscription` is now a private inner struct and `PubSub` only exposes `SubscriptionHandle`
Lockable, ScopedLockable, Mutex:
- Added `lock()` method that locks indefinitely
- Remove deprecated `acquire()` and `release()` methods
- Removed `TtWaitForever` in favour of `portMAX_DELAY`
- unPhone improvements related to power and boot (add boot count logging)
- Cleanup of Mutex acquire/release
- Removed `tt_assert()` in favour of `assert()`
- Fix sim build (likely failed due to migration of GitHub Actions to Ubuntu 24.04)
- WiFi Connect app is now hidden by default, but accessible at the bottom of the WiFi Manage app when WiFi is turned on.
- WiFi service now turns on WiFi when calling connect() and WiFi is not on.
- Removed `blocking` option for `service::loader::startApp()`. This feature was unused and complex.
- Various apps: Moved private headers into Private/ folder.
- Various apps: created start() function for easy starting.
- Added documentation to all TactilityC APIs
- Refactored various `enum` into `class enum`
- Refactor M5Stack `initBoot()` (but VBus is still 0V for some reason)
- GitHub actions changed to build simulator on macOS (it's broken, but at least we get a good code portability check for now!)
- `Buildscripts/` shell scripts updated to use `/bin/sh` so it works on macOS too
- Various includes fixed in various subprojects so the code is more portable
## Time & Date
- Added time to statusbar widget
- Added Time & Date Settings app
- Added TimeZone app for selecting TimeZone
- Added `tt::time` namespace with timezone code
## Other changes
- Added `SystemEvent` to publish/subscribe to system wide (e.g. for init code, but also for time settings changes)

- Change partition type from `spiffs` to `fat`, so we can have sub-directories
- Fix crash when doing WiFi scan: Increased system event task size to 3kB.
- Free up IRAM on ESP32 (it was required for the Core2, but I also freed up the same amount for Yellow Board)
- Introduced `Paths` objects that can be retrieved by `AppContext` and `ServiceContext`. Apps and services now have their own relative paths. Assets were re-arranged into the correct paths.
- Rename simulator window title to "Tactility"
- Refactored statusbar widget so it persists icon paths properly (it kept a const char* reference, but didn't copy it, so it crashed when the related std::string was destroyed)
- Created `Partitions.h` to expose some useful variables
- Moved USB config in various `sdkconfig` (it was part of the "default" section, but it shouldn't be)
- Updated domain name
- Create real drivers instead of wrapping M5Unified/M5GFX
- Display HAL improvements (better default base class behaviour)
