Changes:
- Improved behavior when press enter/return in the current position timecode field
- Made it is easier to choose opaque black in the color chooser dialogs
- Changed numeric fields in Size, Position & Rotate and Text: Rich to require Enter, Tab, or click outside (de-focus) to apply the change. This prevents the filter going to weird or undesired sizes or positions as you enter values
- Changed Text: Rich default size and postion to have a 10% margin inside the frame

New:
- Added a warning dialog when the computer is getting low on available memory
- Added Properties > menu > Set Equirectangular...

- Added a Show Grid option to the 360: Transform video filter as a visual aid
- Added a dialog to confirm trying to add or paste filters to Timeline > Output
- Added Move Up, Move Down, and Deselect buttons to Filters
- Added command line option --QT_SCALE_FACTOR_ROUNDING_POLICY that accepts values
- Round, Ceil, Floor, RoundPreferFloor, PassThrough
- The default is Round except on Windows where it is RoundPreferFloor, which makes it treat 150% like 100% to reduce the UI text size
