- Update to 0.9.15
  A Beta Release of Sigil ported to QtWebEngine to replace QtWebKit
  * New Features
    - ported to use QtWebEngine (based on Chromium) to replace 
      QtWebkit
    - QtWebEngine plugs many major memory leaks. 
      Memory footprint should stay low to moderate.
    - QtWebEngine has ongoing security and support patches from 
      Qt/Google/Chromium
    - removes the broken/deprecated BookView Editor that relied on 
      QtWebKit
    - created PageEdit app (that uses QtWebEngine) that replaces 
      much BookView functionality
      (see https://github.com/Sigil-Ebook/PageEdit)
    - allows the user to control use of javascript and remote 
      access by epubs when editing to improve overall security
    - adds action to launch one preferred external xhtml editor via
      shortcut or icon
      (can be used to fast launch PageEdit app or any other xhtml 
      open-with editor)
    - adds 5 more plugin quicklaunch buttons to main menu for 
      a total of 10 (with all new icons! Thanks so much Becky!)
  It also includes all of the fixes and updates from Sigil-0.9.14.
  Be aware that Sigil-0.9.15 still enforces the need for epub3 to 
  have and support an NCX so that it generates as backward 
  a compatible epub as possible. This may be relaxed in future 
  releases.
- Changes from 0.9.14
  This Sigil release is primarily to address performance issues and
  memory leaks, but there are a still some new features and other 
  bug fixes as described below.
  
  * Bug Fixes
    - flush all changes to disk before creating a Report so that 
      files sizes are correct
    - stop writing python bytecode to Program Files on Windows
    - remember cover semantics if cover image replaced by Add 
      Existing...
    - fix issues with the Plugin Framework documentation epub
    - more memory leaks plugged
    - minor code cleanups
  * New Features
    - updated to Qt 5.12.3 with Annulen Webkit 5.212 with extra 
      QtCursor memory leak fixes
    - updated to Python 3.7.2
    - updated build docs for macOS, Linux and Windows
    - build system now uses GNUInstallDirs to determine the best 
      installation libdir on Linux
    - updated desktop integration for Linux
    - reduce PCRE cache size to help lower memory footprint
    - improve mapping of hunspell dictionary names to actual 
      language names (thanks BeckyDTP)
    - add warning during import if unmanifested files exist in the
      epub zip archive
    - no longer requires use of non-breaking space entities 
      (or any entities at all!)
    - special spaces are now visisble via syntax highlighting in 
      CodeView
    - dropping epubs on Sigil.app no longer opens an extra empty 
      epub on macOS
    - reload Preview only when needed to help prevent screen 
      flicker and lower memory use
    - enabled Windows automated builds using Apppveyor
    - Windows releases now compiled with Visual Studio 2017
    - characters in HTML files report now uses gumbo for speed
    - allow user's custom plugin icons to survive a plugin update
  Sigil 0.9.14 will mark the last version that uses QtWebKit, 
  and will be the last version to support editing in BookView.
