All platforms - PlasticX: Expandable symlinks directories
Symlinks that points to a directory are now expandable from plastic itself!
This feature allows for easier navigation when the workspace contains symlinks. If a symlink points to a directory that is inside the workspace, it behaves like any other directory in the workspace, however if a symlink points to a directory that is outside the workspace, actions like "add to source control" are disabled for these files.

All platforms - Plastic, Gluon: Better error handling for plastic links
When opening a plastic link, if there are any issues while processing it (because it's in the wrong format, or the server specified can't be accessed) we were just exiting the application without showing any error report.
We improved this behavior, and now we show a message with the reason why the plastic link could not be opened.
New
All platforms: Added "Plastic SCM" prefix to assembly product name metadata
Before we were just setting the Release song name as "Product name" field in the assembly info of all the applications. Now we add the "Plastic SCM" prefix so some antivirus security reports using this "Product name" field can identify in a snap they belong to Plastic SCM.
Bug
All platforms - PlasticX, GluonX: Fixed selection in home view
There was an issue with the selection in the home view: when exploring the contents of a repository, if you selected a file or directory in the tree, and then clicked on a different repository, we were selecting a random item in the new tree.
We fixed this issue, and now when changing the repository, the tree selection is cleared
Bug
Cloud: Fix the permissions issue with the case of the letters on the email
The permissions set for a single user were only working when the user logged in using the same case of the letters on the emails. For example, you allow jame.webb@telescope.com to see a repository, but when James logs in using James.Web@telescope.com cannot see the repository. Now it's fixed.
Bug
All platforms - DevOps: Mergebots and plugs not running due to missing log4net dll
Recently we updated the log4net version to a more secure one. There were some related projects (mergebots) lacking that update which were failing. Now they are working as expected.
