What is new in Azayaka 1.4

## What's Changed
- Added support for macOS Sequoia
- Added support for recording in HDR on macOS Sequoia, if available (#23)
- Added option to use Apple's new ScreenCaptureKit recorder on macOS Sequoia
 - Azayaka's own recorder, which has been in use until now, is still available on all versions of macOS (and remains the only option on Ventura & Sonoma)
 - Microphone recording using Apple's recorder will write all audio to a single track. Tracks will still be split when using the default recorder.
 - This recorder does not support H.265 on Intel devices and can only record audio in 128Kbps, and is as such not used by default.
- Made notifications interactive (#24, #29):
 - Added buttons to move a finished recording to the trash or copy it to the clipboard.
 - The recorded file will be focused in Finder when the notification is clicked.
- Added a configurable countdown option (#20 by @ResistanceTo)
- Windows from apps without bundle ID:s are now listed (e.g. [WINE](https://www.winehq.org) windows)
- Fixed crashes when
 - a) recording to non-existing folders (the folder will now be created)
 - b) having an empty destination path (#25) 
- Minor UI adjustments
