0.2.0

A big shout out to all the contributors! We had 18 contributors in this release.

Enough has changed to bump the version. We're skipping 0.1.x because previously the CLI would always report version as 0.1.0, and we'd like to distinguish it in bug reports..

Registers can now be selected via " (for example "ay)
Support for Nix files was added
Movement is now fully tested and matches kakoune implementation
A per-file LSP symbol picker was added to space+s
Selection can be replaced with yanked text via R
1g now correctly goes to line 1
ctrl-i now correctly jumps backwards in history
A small memory leak was fixed, where we tried to reuse tree-sitter query cursors, but always allocated a new one
Auto-formatting is now only on for certain languages
The root directory is now provided in LSP initialization, fixing certain language servers (typescript)
LSP failing to start no longer panics
Elixir language queries were fixed

0.0.10

Keymaps: - Add mappings to jump to diagnostics - Add gt/gm/gb mappings to jump to top/middle/bottom of screen - ^ and $ are now gh, gl

The runtime/ can now optionally be embedded in the binary
