Beta 10

What should have been a quick bugfix release turned into a very long development cycle (around 500 commits since the last release). Beta 10 adds several new features and bugfixes.

Going forward, there will be two primary new features: brightness and keyboard OSDs. After this functionality is complete, development efforts will shift towards bug fixes and improving some of the functionality (making keyboard/mouse hotkeys more robust, for instance).

Thanks to everyone for reporting bugs and helping make this release possible. I have a feeling 2.9.3 will come much more quickly (probably due to new bugs/regressions introduced in this release...).

WARNING: Brightness and Keyboard functionality is NOT complete, but the settings are available in the Settings UI. Please ignore these for now.

Coming soon after sanity checks are complete.
