Windows: Use calibre's bundled SSL certificates instead of the system store by default
I am tired of all the bug reports about SSL cerificate verify failures
on windows caused by the windows certificate store not having needed
intermediate certificates. So use the bundled certificates instead which
are the set of certificates trusted by Firefox and curl.

Can be turned off via CALIBRE_USE_SYSTEM_CERTIFICATES=1 env var

Fix a regression that broke handling of mouse clicks on some Linux Wayland systems with a touchpad
Basically, in Qt 6 Wayland, Qt reports the device for mouse events
as finger when they come from a touchpad instead of a mouse. This caused
them to be swallowed by the gesture recognizer as being synthesized
mouse events.

Linux: Default to using XWayland instead of native Wayland as there are various bugs with Qt+Wayland . You can set the env var QT_QPA_PLATFORM=wayland to force calibre to use Wayland. 2022-07-14 08:22:07 +05:30

manual/customizing: reword intro, mention that plugins can be shared
And while we are at it, add a simple disclaimer that plugins and themes
are not part of calibre and support for them is handled externally via
their support threads.
