OwlPlug 1.25.0

Features

Project Discovery

The project feature in OwlPlug allows you to scan DAW project files to extract referenced plugins. Plugins references in project files are compared to plugins installed in configured directories. This way, users can quickly identify missing plugins in the local setup. For now, only Ableton Live is supported but other file formats will be supported in the future (by @DropSnorz in #209)

Updated look and feel

The UI has been updated to a Metro (MS Windows) style for better contrast and clarity. JFoenix has been replaced by native JavaFx components. It's a really positive change as the library has been buggy and unmaintained for years (by @DropSnorz in #205)

Misc and Bugfixes

• Update the common compress library to fix a moderate security vulnerability (e166722)
• All tasks appear with a name in the task list, instead of a generic "OwlPlug Task"
• Dialog default size has been updated
