Main changes in this version:

big speed improvement when generating font binaries
better error handling when validating extensions
improve loading extensions which require other extensions (load required extensions first)

added a pop-up window to copy metrics when copying between layers
several bug fixes!
Update of internal packages.

Newer 3.2 Beta builds will become available on the website as they are released.
