v0.16.11

This release features a complete overhaul of the way lists and grids are rendered in vicinae. This results in significant performance improvements across the board.

Most builtin commands and extension views have been migrated to the new system, but the old one is still in use in some places and will be fully migrated as part of the next releases.

Although it has been thoroughly tested new bugs may have appeared. Please report them if you see any.

What's Changed

• feat: new virtual list implementation by @aurelleb in #792
