Introducing 0.75.0 Release Candidate 1

Installation instructions:

This release is significant for several reasons:

It's our first stable release. From this point forward, the 0.75.x series will only contain bugfixes. It kicks off the 0.76 development cycle, for which a number of features are already lined up. The new project homepage makes the downloads publicly accessible, without the need for a GitHub account.

There's no human-readable changelog just yet - there are ~1500 commits to comb through. Hopefully, within a couple of days, we'll be able to write a nice summary with a description of new features, improvements, and bugfixes.

In the meantime, we invite everyone to start testing RC1 builds; there are some rough edges for sure - if you find any bugs, please report them in our bugtracker. You can also ask questions on the #dosbox‑staging channel in Luxtorpeda Discord Server.

This release includes all upstream changes until SVN r4336, and 857 Git commits on top of that.

Have fun! :)
