Release v1.6.0

[tig]

Folks, this morning (New Zealand time 😊) I am prepping to do a new release.

Here's the current change list.

            v1.6.0
      * Adds ColorPicker control
      * Adds Context Menu to TreeView
      * Adds support for custom colors in TreeView
      * Adds Data field to MenuItem
      * Adds Timeout thread safety
      * Adds better docs for Application.Shutdown ()
      * Fixes #1699 Menu closes on button press and menu hot-key text renders correctly
      * Fixes #1675 ContextMenu MenuItems typo
      * Fixes #1715 UI Catalog about box version
      * Fixes #1712 Intermittent Github Action build failures
      * Fixes remaining wide runes render issues including #1693 Character Map
      * Fixes the draw clip bounds issue visible on ScrollView.
      * Fixes UpdateScreen running twice on Application.Refresh because Driver. Refresh already does.
      * Fixes TextView throwing when WordWrap is true on constructor initialization.
      * Fixes RunTimers not checking for key collisions in list when adding to timeouts
      * Fixes erroneous namespace on LineView to match other views
      * Fixes #1723 - ProgressBar with Percentage has extra spaces on the right
      * Fixes nullref on unclean shutdown

Remaining Issues/PRs that should be merged before release:

• Character Map scenario does not display wide runes correctly #1693 Character Map to still not work right - Requires @migueldeicaza to release new NStack.

Any thoughts or concerns?

I think we should also wait for @migueldeicaza to merge gui-cs/NStack#57 into nstack and release a new version of that before we Release 1.6.0.

I say this because now that @BDisp has done such an awesome job of addressing the wide rune stuff, it would be a real shame for Character Map to still not work right (see #1693).

I absolutely agree with you @tig. Please @migueldeicaza :-)

[migueldeicaza]

Apologies! I am merging the patch blindly to not be in the way. I trust your judgment!

@migueldeicaza do you have an ETA when you can release a new NStack.Core to nuget?

Oh, and we should also ensure we've solved (or at least better mitigated) the build failure issue: #1712

@tig did you already see my comment #1714 (comment)?

Woot! v1.6.0 is ready.

I'm about to push the v1.6.0 tag which will publish to Nuget.org.
