[davidlesieur]

Description

• Fix report genre doubly nested in parentheses and square brackets.
• Add support for the 'software' item type.
• Remove hacks that required software items to be recorded as 'report' or 'book'.
• Show report number/software version before genre and medium (per APA guidelines).
