Ability to reorder canvases
Canvases can from now on be reorderd manually, like layers or entitties, directly in the layer panel.

Library semantic search
Libraries got a much-needed improvement: their search is from now on semantic, meaning that Rayon can find matches to users' keywords that are not exact matches, but rather close-by matches, keywords in other languages than english, or even find results based on the interpretation of users' keywords. This makes library searching much more effective.

New shortcuts
A handful of shortcuts have been added to Rayon, to allow faster access to important settings, tools and options.
