Anemone3DS: Beyond Journey's End Beta

I doubt many people were expecting a new Anemone3DS release - frankly I didn't really expect to do more work on it, but life's funny like that I guess. This is probably the biggest update we've done in a long while, and I haven't had the time to test everything thoroughly, so we're going to release it as a pre-release first and hope nothing breaks too bad 😄. I also want a few more languages supported (ideally Spanish and Japanese) before the full release, but more on that later!

Bugfixes

• Fixed various errors when downloading themes via the QR code reader
  • Fix bug with files with * in their name (by @Zemogiter)
  • Fix bugs with Unicode filenames
  • Allow x-zip-compressed to be a valid Mime type
• Disable home button after installing theme; this was deemed to be the root of a number of corruption issues

New Features

• Translation framework allowing for Anemone3DS to be displayed in your native language! Currently only Portugese and French are present, but we're accepting PRs for more languages - feel free to message me or ping me on ThemePlaza or Nintendo Homebrew if you want instructions!
  • Added French translation by @cooolgamer
  • Added Portuguese translation by @iveurne
• Support for Korean region systems using the home menu patch (thanks to @cooolgamer)
• assemble a splash preview if none was found (thanks to @Jan200101)
• Significant performance improvements, especially when scrolling between many themes
• New User Interface which should be both more intuitive (no more button combos!) and also more touch-screen friendly
• Respect Parental Controls which lock the user out of the browser and require a PIN on access if that restriction is enabled
• Warn the user on installing a theme with mono audio - this can cause many audio issues with the home menu
• Add libcurl fallback so that Anemone can scan QR Codes from anywhere - not just HTTP websites.

Thanks to everyone who's been along for the ride and made Anemone3DS the success it is, I truly appreciate all of you. Hopefully I'm able to get this out of beta soon.
