Full Release Notes

# Major milestones

- Implemented devices hotplug in Docker with full container isolation, [here's a rationale behind it](https://games-on-whales.github.io/wolf/stable/dev/fake-udev.html)
- Added support for more joypads: Nintendo Joypad, DualSense with working gyro, acceleration, touchpad, LED and rumble
- Split the project in re-usable libraries: 
  - [inputtino](https://github.com/games-on-whales/inputtino): virtual input library, and merged into [Sunshine via PR-2606](https://github.com/LizardByte/Sunshine/pull/2606)
  - [gst-wayland-display](https://github.com/games-on-whales/gst-wayland-display): A micro Wayland compositor that can be used as a Gstreamer plugin
- Added Sway and set as default instead of Gamescope given the low support on recent Nvidia drivers
- Tons of fixes and overall stability improvements
