What's new in this version:
- Panasonic Fire-OS Channels.sdx lists: removed trailing underscore and space characters from channel names
- downgraded SQLite libraries to avoid a memory access violation crash in the SQLitePCL.raw 2.1.10 (Panasonic svl.bin and probably others)
- added support for *.dbm files with size 782536 (e.g. Vantage VT-80 HD)
- moved "Save as..." and "Export reference list" to a sub menu as they caused frequent confusion with the regular "Save"
