Ahoi, sailors!

We released v2.9.0 today! This release has an exciting feature, and I hope all macro lovers will use it to get more interaction in their macros. It is called "Macro Prompts". With this feature, you can integrate a popup dialog into your macros. You can find instructions on how to integrate these into the macros here: https://docs.mainsail.xyz/overview/features/macro-prompts

Here is also a short overview of other key features from this release:

• File Browser: Add the ability to jump to any segment quickly
• Webcam: Add go2rtc WebRTC client
• Toolhead Panel: Add option to hide unused sections
• Extruder Panel: Add option to hide unused sections
• Add minimum_cruise_ratio support (will be merged in Klipper in January)
• Theme: Add a Light mode

There are also some smaller features and a lot of bugfixes in this release.
The complete changelog for v2.9.0 is available at https://github.com/mainsail-crew/mainsail/releases/tag/v2.9.0.
