This release introduces support for the Jade signing device, a number of usability improvements as
well as some bug fixes.

Breaking changes

Liana GUI

• The hardware_wallets field in the configuration file is now disregarded. It was deprecated since
  version 0.2.

Features

Liana daemon / library

• We now more accurately estimate the size of a signed spend transaction, preventing overpaying fees
  in some configurations.
• lianad now accepts two new arguments: --version and --help.

Liana GUI

• We now support the Jade signing device.
• We now use a more recent graphic renderer (wgpu), which offers
  better compatibility with newer systems.
• The network is now set first in the installer.
• It's now possible to get back from the descriptor creation step to the installer landing page.
• Advanced text shaping was enabled. Basically: you can now use emojis in labels and aliases.
• Date and time are now displayed according to the system's timezone configuration.
• We now also show the BIP388
  wallet policy when registering a descriptor on a signing device.
• The descriptor backup step was removed in installer when a descriptor was just imported in the
  previous step.
• We now set a minimum window size.

Fixes

Liana daemon / library

Liana GUI

• When creating a new wallet, we now better communicate if a wallet already exists in the selected
  network.
• When configuring the connection to bitcoind manually, we now display a warning if specifying a
  non-loopback IP address.
• Clicking on "Wallet" breadcrumb in Settings used to open "About" page.
• When entering the feerate for an RBF, it was made easier to edit a single-digit value.
• When updating an existing transaction draft, entering an invalid PSBT could crash the application.
