Vienna 3.8.0 Beta 1

[barijaona]

• Implement an experimental new browser based on WKWebView : it can be selected in Advanced preferences, and will be available after application restart. It is fastest and more secure.
• Refactor code:
  • modify ArticleController to be a NSViewController
  • structurate code around protocols like Browser, Tab, ArticleContentView, ArticleViewDelegate and BrowserContextMenuDelegate
  • change many methods of BaseView protocol to be optional and remove unneeded code
  • introduce new classes : ArticleConverter, ArticleStyleLoader, RSSSubscriber
• Remove preference setting related to notifications (already handled by System Preferences)
• Fix image overflow with certain feeds
• Update Sparkle to version 1.26
• Use NSFileManager properties for library paths
• Migrate some tests to Swift
• Update procedures for building binaries (don't use Bintray anymore, fix notarization)

Please report on any feature working in version 3.7.1 which might be broken by this beta, while using the legacy WebView browser ("Preview new browser" not enabled).

The new browser is available but is not yet fully functional. Initial focus will be on stability and usability rather than completing functional parity with legacy browser.
