Vienna 3.9.3

This version is recommended to all Vienna users.
It fixes problems reported by users having switched from legacy browser (available in previous versions of Vienna) to Vienna 3.9.x (which completed the switch to WKWebView).

🚲 Changes

• Fix "Validate Feed" button in Info window when the feed has a query-based URL

⚙️ Internals improvements

• Make finding Vienna related content in help menus easier
• Improve recovery mechanism when Vienna is forced to switch to alphabetical sort for folders and feeds.
  Hopefully, this should limit the risk of seeing the problem reoccur.
• Update informations related to folder even when the feed has no articles
• Make "Last Updated" date displayed in "Info" window more consistent
• Improve memory management (cache of folder's articles)

🛤️ Infrastructure updates
