WayVR v26.2.0 (formerly WlxOverlay-S)
This is a feature release that pairs with WiVRn release 26.2 as well as current Monado main.
While WayVR will work with older versions of Monado / WiVRn, some features like input blocking and overlay transparency will not function completely with older versions.

Known issues:
- SteamVR 2.14.x forcibly unlinks WayVR's pipewire capture nodes. Pipewire screen capture will not work under SteamVR 2.14.x

- An upstream bug in the SVG library, can cause WayVR to crash when opening the "Apps" tab.
