Hi all,

Here comes a new release to Fcitx 5.
There are not too many new features in this release, most of them are
bug fixing.
The most important new features are:
1. Use fixed line height in classicui style, so input window won't be
"jumpy" due to font fallback.
2. Able to load newly installed Addon. So it is possible to add new
input method immediately after installing new ones.
3. Make it possible to override "label/inc" (A 1-2 character short
string that represents current input method) for sub mode, this is
currently used by Rime and Japanese input methods including
Anthy/Kkc/Skk. This should make the UI even cleaner when showing input
method information.

xcb-imkdit 1.0.3

libime 1.0.6
minor fix in pinyin pronunciation weight. When adding new missing
pronunciation in the last release, the weight was not assigned to some
common characters, thus it causes confusion in the order.
This release update with weight for common characters and should
restore the ordering for those characters (e.g. 她 射)
