Hi,
It has been a while since the last release. Here are some highlights
on this release. This release has some important bug fixes.

fcitx5 5.1.10

New candidate action API, planned to be used for mac/android port.

There was an issue between fcitx 5.1.9 and the wayland compositor that
uses zwp_input_method_v2.
Hyprland & river already has upstream fix for it, while I got no reply
from sway swaywm/sway#8143 .
While I prefer to keep the change, I don't want to leave users in a
state that can't use the input method at all, so the relevant change
was reverted in 5.1.10.

There is also a crash due to a bug on fcitx's wayland frontend. The
crash may be triggered when the system is slow.

There is a design flaw in StandardPath::multiOpen API that may open
too many files and exhaust the fd that it can open. Alternative API is
implemented and engines are adapted to the new API in this release.
