Released v1.8.0!

A fairly juicy release, since it introduces OpenType/TrueType rendering, thanks to @sherman's work!

It also properly detects the new Forma

.
And as mentioned earlier, it now properly detects Kobo devices even when onboard is unavailable.

It also makes an attempt at handling the native boot rotation properly... This is a bit tricky, and means I *may* have broken 16bpp rotation handling on a few devices (mainly, the H2O²r1, possibly r2 too).
If you're still running an old FW that runs in a 16bpp modeset, and stuff is badly rotated after this update, give me a shout
