Watcharr

[!NOTE]
The next release is finally here! Don’t worry about the major version bump though, there’s nothing for you to do, other than update your server as usual (more details here).

It is still recommended that you perform a backup before updating!

Changed

• Migration to Svelte 5, new code format rules for frontend, some general overdue refactoring by @IRHM in https://github.com/sbondCo/Watcharr/pull/762
  • Full migration to Svelte 5 (instead of slowly migrating, everything has been moved over to use Svelte 5 features now)
    • The store is now an object using the $state rune, instead of using a svelte store. All uses have been updated, looks a lot cleaner now!
  • Edited prettierrc: Use default printWidth of 80, Always leave trailing ,, use tabs.
  • All code reformatted to use Tabs instead of Spaces (have been meaning to fix this for a while, all the code being changed in this pr was a good excuse to get it done).
