Release Notes Published

Note: This version requires a new 'directory' permission (required for data export to filesystem)

Feature: Migration to Electron (currently behind a flag) - Warning banner that this version is deprecated - Export of all database contents to disk - This exported data can be used to initialize the Electron version of the app - Note: after export, this Chrome instance will not be useable since the Electron export-initialized instance will be an exact copy. There can only be one client with the same identity! - See original pull request for flags to enable or reset: #1342

We now log 'clearAttention' less, since we call it every two seconds

String updates for es, fi, it, ja, pt_PT, ru and sv
