Bug Fixes/Tweaks
----------------

- Reverted 23.0 changes to slideshow, and instead introduced a 250 megabyte memory limit to image slideshow so people can't accidentally exhaust their memory by loading countless images from a folder.  This fixes an issue where large image counts would cause increased CPU usage and rendering lag when transitioning images, or when switching scenes in some cases.
- Removed the close buttons from primary docks (scenes, sources, transitions, mixer, controls).  These docks can still be hidden, but now must be explicitly hidden with the view menu instead.  This change does not apply to secondary docks, such as chat, stream information, or stats.
- On Linux, the tray now uses icons from the system theme
- Fixed a bug when upmixing from mono to stereo would cause the volume to be quieter
- Fixed a bug where NVENC wouldn't show up for the NVIDIA Quadro P5000
- Fixed another case where the last frame of an NVENC stream/recording could show up as the first frame in a subsequent stream/recording in the same running session
- Fixed another case where output could be green for certain devices
- Fixed a crash that could happen if you clicked settings too quickly after starting up with streaming account integration, or if you exit the program too quickly
