📄 Description

Modernized certain aspects of the codebase (converted bundle .NIBs to .XIBs, created an asset catalog for app images, migrated the remaining code to support ARC)
Use SF symbols for preferences window on Big Sur and above
Better organized status item & dock menus
Unified widths across preference panels, and decoupled the display tab height
Exported .kcplugin as a UTI

And after a fair amount of work, I managed to recreate the about window as a native Core Animation bundle! I also modernized the logo a bit, please feel free to give your opinions on it and I'd be happy to adjust it to your liking.
