NickelClock: Show time while reading

[sherman]

I've had no reports of problems with the beta, so I'm releasing v0.4.0


For those who installed v0.4.0-beta1, there has been no changes so you don't need to upgrade.


Please see below for the changes that I posted last week.

I have switched back to the original TimeLabel, as the custom one stopped updating the time after a while.

New Features

A proper fix for the flashing on colour Kobo ereaders has been implemented. A huge thanks to @mon on Github who figured out what was happening and submitted a fix (with disclosed AI assistance). See the PR for all the details. TLDR, kobo sets an eink refresh mode hint when opening the dictionary on colour devices, but never clears it when closing the dictionary.

A new battery widget has been implemented. The battery icon displays properly in dark mode. I've also cropped the battery icon to remove excess margins.
