Summer Release with new waveform viewer & 2023-4 memory leak fixed
This release incorporates a new design for the waveform simulator with a software scrollbar and greatly improved performance. It also fixes a major problem working on big designs affecting v4 and v3 - a memory leak leading to slow operation and then crashing.

- Feat: add button to RAM link menu
- Fix: stop save button spurious highlighting

- Feat: use button spinner not progress bar for all waveform generation
v5.1.16
- Major refactor of new top-level simulation
- Fix: focus
- Fix: unnecessary simulation
v5.1.15
- Feat: new-style simulation triggers (should be more robust)
