Release 3.8.0 (r3_8_0)

• The term "Central server" has been replaced with "Directory server" (#1407, #1715, #1629).
  Note that the program will still accept the --centralserver option for backward
  compatibility with existing system startup scripts, but its usage is deprecated.
  (contributed by @pljones, @softins)

• Mac: Generate build with Qt 5.15.2 for better compatibility with Big Sur (#1687, #1768).
  We still build a legacy version with Qt 5.9.9 to support older versions of macOS:

  • Users of 10.13 (High sierra) or newer should use the standard build with Qt 5.15.2
  • Users of Yosemite, El Capitan or Sierra should use the legacy build with Qt 5.9.9
    (contributed by @softins)

• GUI: Settings window has been reorganized into tabs (#1415, #1554, #1542, #1588):

    (contributed by @dcorson-ticino-com, @pljones)

• GUI: Moved the Ping and Delay stats from the Settings window to the main window (#1762):
  This was partly to work around a Mac issue with updates to the settings window (#1643)
  and is actually an improvement anyway, as the settings window does not need to remain open.
  (contributed by @dcorson-ticino-com and @softins)

• GUI: Added "About Qt" to the help menu to display version of Qt (#1685, #1692).

  It can create a much more realistic spatial sound impression for clients
  that are set to Stereo or Mono-in/Stereo-out mode.
