LiquidLauncher v0.5.0

LiquidLauncher v0.5.0 resolves issues relating to users with networking problems accessing our API, and sends these information directly to the client for a quicker API lookup. This release introduces full support for macOS ARM and resolves the WebView issue completely. As a side-effect, LiquidLauncher now uses fewer resources because it no longer keeps a WebView on hold. We also prepared LiquidLauncher for the upcoming LiquidBounce releases to synchronize the logged-in LiquidBounce account in the Premium Section. We also finally updated our Marketing Facts as well as giving the Launcher a bit more version neutrality considering that LiquidBounce has Multi-Version Support.
