Released v1.21.0!

A major release, with a bunch of fixes and a quite a few new features, see the release notes for details .

To name a few of those things:

* A bunch of subtle rendering fixes & performance improvements when running on 16bpp fbs.
* Padding handling in the OT/TTF codepath, making it easier to print overlapping text at the same coordinates without having to worry about overlap.
* Being able to clear a specific region of the screen (A.K.A.: let's paint filled rectangles freely).
* You're now able to try out the legacy dithering features available on Mk. 6 devices.
* The doom demo featured a while back now ships with the standalone packages. Using similar settings as before, I can push a solid 55fps out of my Forma .

There are a couple of breaking changes, both as far as the CLI & API are concerned, so, do read the relevant sections of the release notes .

Also, if you happen to own a reMarkable tablet, it is now supported, thanks to @tcrs!
