New firmwares for dreame robots and some bugfixes
New dreame firmwares
It took quite a lot of time and work, but now we're proud to announce that we've managed to get newer dreame firmwares
to work rooted and with Valetudo. A big thank you to everyone who helped during the beta test!
Important: That does not mean that these newer firmwares have become rootable.
You will need to have an already rooted robot to install these latest rooted firmwares.
To update, head over to the dustbuilder at https://builder.dontvacuum.me/ to build and install a new image.
Make sure to update Valetudo before updating the firmware.
Other dreame news
Starting today, every firmware image built with the dustbuilder will contain a fix for the vanishing Valetudo issue,
which occasionally left people with a rooted robot but no Valetudo.
If a user starts a new mapping pass, the fresh map should now appear instantly.
Furthermore, issues with frozen maps either during cleanups or when editing segments were fixed as well.
Robot Coverage View
The UI has been extended with a view displaying a much thicker path.
This can be used to better see which areas of the map have been cleaned.
Whether this view will stick around long-term is yet to be decided. It was pretty easy to implement though.
Feel free to leave your feedback in the comments.

Misc
This changelog features artworks generated by DALL-E 2 because I thought it would be neat to have something to look at.
Unfortunately, it doesn't like generating artworks featuring lidar-based vacuum robots (yet?)
I hope they've nonetheless enhanced your changelog reading experience.
Feel free to leave feedback on that as well.
