- Fix bug in Development app: when launching/stopping external app due to LVGL being stopped and a timer still being active (sometimes, as it's a race condition)
- Added TODO to fix the same bug in other apps
- Update external app SDKs to `0.5.0-SNAPSHOT`

- 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.
