This patch is mainly made of bug fixes.

Yet it also features a new JS documentation https://hugofara.github.io/lwt/docs/js/ and an enhanced PHP documentation https://hugofara.github.io/lwt/docs/php/.

Special @ProgramComputer for his insights, pull requests and issues. @HenryWales and @PeterHero were also great to contributor to this release by documenting bugs. Thank you all!

Added

• New tools for documentation:
  • New JavaScript documentation with JSDoc! You will find it under docs/js/.
  • Better PHP documentation using phpDocumentor. The new documentation is at docs/php/.
• New constant LWT_LANGUAGES_ARRAY, that replaces $langDefs (in inc/langdefs.php). Part of Replace globals by constants #163.

Changed

• PHP files header docblocks are expanded, notably with a PHP version, package and category name.
• Japanese number are now parsed by MeCab. Big thanks to @ProgramComputer for his pull request count quantities with mecab japanese #149!
• Removes dead feeds from the demo database, as signaled in Some demo newsfeeds are not live #148.
• Patch update to the REST API to 0.1.1: requests on GET with empty payload were
  resulting in error.

Fixed

• Fixes TTS and unrecognized language names #113: changing a language name was making text-to-speech unusable and may prompt a warning.
• Since 2.9.0, tests may be unable to run due to a missing key in an AJAX request ("type").
• Since 2.9.0, audio position was not saved properly.
• On upload_words.php, "update only empty fields" was broken.
• Translation were not set by default properly when editing terms translations table.
• The field MeCab was set for Japanese even when not asked for. Signaled on PR [BUG] Mecab required when not set #155], thanks to @ProgramComputer.
• Since 2.8.1, Japanese word romanization was not displayed any more. Thanks to 아르노 for signalling the bug on Discord!
• The go slower/faster feature on audio was broken (Most audio buttons may not work anymore #138), as functions click_slower
  and click_faster were declared two times in src/js/audio_controller.js.
• When opening a text, text position was not saved and a text_id is unknown error was triggered.
• Do not display an error on step 2 of feed wizard at first initialization (Error in Step 2 of the 'New Feed Wizard' #129).
• It was impossible to install the demo database if they was more or less than one instruction a line.
  This is fixed, and the SQL file was made more readable.
• Changes WoStatusChange default value to '1970-01-01 01:00:01', it was impossible to install the demo DB out of LWT (related to (Invalid default value for 'WoStatusChanged' #78).
• Deleting a language deletes the language (Why isn't Delete used here? #151). Before it was setting the language to empty values.
• On media select, the lwt folder name was prepended to the media folder,
  resulting in broken path (Wrong media URI after choosing file from list #161).
• With the REST API, requests with an empty query were resulting in an error.
• no-minify composer command was fixed, suggested as a part of PR Old theme and enhance Test page frontend #154 by
  @ProgramComputer.
