What's new in this version:

- Improved performance. Loading in projects especially should now be up to 50x faster compared to 3.1.0.
- Added snap guides when resizing clips
- Added new shortcuts for looping: Shift+L for "Set Loop to Selection", Shift+Alt+L for "Clear Looping Region"
- Added a new selection region indicator in the timeline (identical in function as the one found pre-3.1, but with updated visuals)
- Changed error messages to look less like a crash report
- Re-added the Quick Play indicator (green triangle and line) that got lost during 3.1.0 development

Fixed:
- Play-at-speed not updating the playback speed dynamically
- looping regions being created unintentionally when attempting to use Timeline Quick Play
- looping sometimes playing the wrong audio
- a bug that could cause data-loss when joining multiple clips
- scrub preview visibility
- a bug when trying to locate FFMPEG manually
- a glitch with Loop Playback
- a crash and a macOS-specific bug when renaming sync-locked clips using a dialog box
- a crash when releasing a clip handle
- a freeze when closing Audacity with the logging window open
- a crash when loading a saved project using certain compilers
- a crash on paste after running macros
- a crash when cancelling a nyquist prompt
