Lataa Jan 0.8.4

Migration
Settings and credentials now live in a backend-managed store.
Provider settings and credentials previously persisted in the webview's localStorage. In 0.8.4, Jan reads and writes them from a backend-managed store instead (secrets go to the OS keyring). Your existing settings and API keys are copied over automatically on first launch - no manual action is needed, and from this version on all new changes are saved to the backend store.
Your old localStorage data is not deleted - it's kept as a snapshot so you can downgrade to a pre-0.8.4 build and still have your previous settings. Any changes you make in 0.8.4+ live only in the backend store, so a downgrade sees the older snapshot, not your latest settings.
