Devolutions UniGetUI 2026.2.2
This release marks the completion of UniGetUI's migration from WinUI to Avalonia. With the remaining WinUI components and dependencies now removed, UniGetUI is fully powered by Avalonia. This update also brings Windows 11 Snap Layouts support, refined styling throughout the application, improved log viewing, new illustrations, and significantly smaller release packages.

- Added support for Windows 11 Snap Layouts when hovering the maximize button, matching the behavior of native Windows applications.
- Added illustrations for empty and loading package list states, improving visual feedback throughout the application.
- Improved the operation log window so automatic scrolling no longer interrupts users when reviewing previous log entries.
