Features and enhancements

3D viewer:

• When coloring by creator the user colormap dialog only shows users who have
  created at least one node loaded in the view. Additionally, a new coloring
  mode, "By Creator (relevant users)", will generate a new set of colors for
  these users from the CATMAID color scheme. This is useful if many users have
  similar colors in their user profiles.
• Rendering and removal of skeletons is much faster, which is especially
  noticeable for > 100 loaded skeletons. This also enables the use of a more
  accurate node picking (Shift+click) algorithm as default, which before was
  only used as fallback.

Volume manager:

• Volumes an now be removed (given a user has the required permissions) by
  clicking on the 'remove' link in the last column of the volume table.

Statistics widget:

• If a user has the can_administer permission for a project, the Statistics
  widget now displays an extra button to open the new User Analytics widget. It
  displays the same information as the admin view with the same name. The user
  analytics view now offers also options to adjust the max. inactivity time and
  whether all write operations should be included (as opposed to only node and
  review changes).

Tracing overlay:

• Radii can now be set to be visible for no nodes, the active node, all nodes
  in the active skeleton, or all nodes through the Settings Widget.
• Pressing Ctrl + O will set a radius with the measurement tool without
  bringing up the confirmation dialog.

Miscellaneous:

• Holding Ctrl with < or > will now smoothly animate through sections as
  fast as the active layers will allow. This also works with Shift to move
  10 sections at a time.
• The log now displays times in the local timezone.
• The connector table now lists the confidence of both the link to the
  connector and from the connector to the target treenode.

Bug fixes

• Remove major cause of CATMAID freezing after the display of an error message.
• Annotation search lists all results again, not only first page.
• When joining skeletons, the creation time of annotations is preserved.
• Fixed an error preventing branching from virtual nodes in some cases.
• The history widget correctly displays the action time, not the current time.
