1.4.0 - Overhauled UI & UX

Hey ! 👋

🎉 Finally, the 1.4.0 release is here !!

First, as the main maintainer, I'd like to apologize for the very long time it took. One year spent, and it is not very fruitful. But, I hope that it will be very stable.

Here is a list of main changes :

• 🔢 The messages IDs mess which caused a lot of problems is now fixed ! When you'll update, you'll need to wait a few minutes for the updating script (from v3 to v3.1) inspects all the messages.
• 💐 A lot of UI components have been redesigned. Notably the color management (auto-mixed colors now), but also the message view and the about page ! And more is coming for the main view !
• ⚙️ Also settings have been redesigned, but with an auto-generating pages script. Now adding a new setting or a new category is very easy !
• 🛜 Also, @y5nw added the possibility to send messages (interpreted as commands, so) to non-player recipients. You should register recipient by calling mail.register_recipient_handler(function(sender, recipient) ... end)
• 🚫 A very basic spam auto-detection has been implemented. In fact, it is a short-term solution, because folders will be implement in a near future. But the new muting list feature will be kept.
• ⌛ A time offset setting has been added, that you should manually set to adjust server time to your local time.
• 🐛 And as usual, some new fixes ! Considering the amount of changes, a new 1.4.1 will be probably released in few weeks.
