🖨 More detailed accept options for file blueprints

🔧 Previously, file blueprints could be configured to only allow specific MIME types to be uploaded.
- It is now possible to limit the uploaded files based on the file extension and/or the file type.
  
  accept: extension: jpg, png
  
  accept: type: image, audio, video
- 💻 These restrictions can be combined with a custom set of MIME types. This makes it possible to define MIME types that are compatible with all browsers while still protecting the uploads based on the extension and/or file type:
  
  accept: mime: image/*type: image
In this example, Kirby will generate a file upload input with an accept="image/*" attribute and will then validate both the MIME type and the detected file type on the server after the file is uploaded.
0️⃣ If no restrictions are defined in the file blueprint, Kirby will now limit the accepted uploads to the types image, document, archive, audio and video by default. This protects your sites against unexpected uploads like code files that could be used to attack the server or the visitor's browsers.
You can disable the automatic types and allow all uploads like this:
```
accept: true# or:accept: mime: nullorientation: square...
```

💥 Breaking!
- 👍 We've decided to drop support for PHP 7.2 in 3.5.0. 7.2 will be reaching end-of-life before we release 3.5.0 and we shouldn't be supporting it anymore anyway. Some of our updated dependencies have already dropped support for it and it makes more sense to drop it as well as to keep old dependencies around.
✨ Enhancements
- ⚡️ Updated PHP dependencies
- 👍 Better Travis CI test setup that now also tests our frontend stuff
- ⚡️ Updated translations (cs, de, fr, ru, sv, tr) Huge thank you to all translators!
🛠 Fixes

- 🛠 Fixed import for external images in editor blocks #77
- 0️⃣ Various fixes in default block snippets
v3.5.0-rc.1 Changes

Disclaimer

🚀 This is a pre-release and probably not fully stable yet. Don't use in production unless you don't mind potential hick-ups. We really appreciate your help while testing this release candidate!

🔋 Features

🆕 New Blocks Field

🏗 The Kirby Builder by Tim Ötting is one of the most popular plugins out there and together with Tim we decided to add it to the core 🎉

🔀 We've rewritten it from scratch and merged it with our popular Editor plugin. The new field is called Blocks and will eventually replace both plugins.

📄 During the RC phase, you can find docs and report issues for the blocks field here: https://github.com/getkirby/blocks

🆕 New Layouts field

🏗 Together with the new Blocks field we are also introducing a powerful new Layout field. Arrange blocks in multiple columns and build complex page layouts.

📄 During the RC phase, you can find docs and report issues for the layout field here: https://github.com/getkirby/blocks

🆕 New Date and Time fields

We've never been really happy with our date field and many of you weren't either. The new date and time fields are a joy to work with and open completely new ways to enter dates.

📄 Docs: TBD

🆕 New Writer field

You don't need the full power of the Blocks? Maybe just some inline HTML? Then the new Writer field is here for you. Create single-line HTML with formats like bold, italic, underline or links

Usage:
```
fields: text: type: writer
```
🆕 New List field

As another spin-off of the Blocks field, we also added a new list field, which can be used if you need to create simple ordered or unordered lists in a more visual way than with Markdown.

Usage:
```
fields: list: type: list
```
🔌 Password Reset, Password-less Login, 2FA and Auth Challenge Plugins

With 3.5 we are introducing major enhancements for our login flow.

🔒 You can now reset your password, login password-less via secure email verification code and even provide your own verification methods via auth challenge plugins. Combine this with the option to enable 2FA authentication to increase the security of your Panel.

📄 Docs: TBD

Redesigned Panel Search

The Panel search has been redesigned and now shows nice previews for pages, files and users.

🆕 New unsaved changes badge in tabs

Tabs now show unsaved changes with a new orange badge and the number of unsaved fields.

🆕 New unified title & slug dialog for pages

⚡️ Renaming a page title or changing the page URL is now done in the same dialog. With this simplified workflow you can instantly see when your Page title and slug no longer matches and need to be updated.

🆕 New page status icons

Our page status icons are now accessible with distinctive forms that no longer challenge people with color blindness.

- ➕ Added I18n::formatNumber() function

v3.4.5 Changes
December 01, 2020
🚀 Security release

🔒 We've been contacted by the security researcher Thore Imhof of Accenture with a vulnerability report that affects file uploads in Kirby's Panel.

🚑 An editor with full access to the Panel can upload a PHP .phar file and execute it on the server. This vulnerability is critical if you might have potential attackers in your group of authenticated Panel users, as they can gain access to the server with such a phar file. Visitors without Panel access cannot use this attack vector.

🚀 We've received this report yesterday and this release will prevent the attack.

⬆️ We recommend to upgrade your sites to Kirby 3.4.5.

🚀 This security release does not introduce any features or other fixes.
