2024.1

Added:

• Configuration option servers.<name>.sasl.external.key added to support loading a separate PEM PKCS #8 encoded key for SASL authentication.

Changed:

• Focus an available pane on launch, so that launch behavior follows typical use (e.g. if dashboard.sidebar.default_action
  is set to replacePane, then selecting a channel in the sidebar will replace the focused pane instead of opening a new pane)
• hidden_server_messages has been changed to server_messages and additional customization has been added:
  • Exclude messages [join, part, quit].
  • Adjust username format.

Fixed:

• Accept '*' as a legal special symbol for usernames
• Accept '/' in usernames, ensuring correct parsing for bouncers using the nick/server convention
• Create the configuration directory correctly, if it does not exist yet.
