With thanks to the @switchbrew team, Atmosphère 1.5.0 is bundled with [hbl](https://github.com/switchbrew/nx-hbloader) 2.4.3, and [hbmenu](https://github.com/switchbrew/nx-hbmenu) 3.5.1.
The following was changed since the last release:
* Support was added for 16.0.0
* `mesosphère` was updated to reflect the latest official kernel behavior.
* `ncm` was updated to reflect the latest official behavior.
* Many FS apis were updated under the hood to reflect the latest official behavior.
* **Please Note**: 16.0.0 made breaking changes to a number of system APIs, including in FS/NCM/Shared Font commands that some homebrew programs may use.
