New BlissOS Zenith builds released with some minor changes:
- Update kernel to 6.6.13
- Revert some new Launcher3 bugfix as it cause some crashing to the launcher
- Fix SLEEP_STATE prop not being set
- Retry generate boot entry for UEFI if detected it's not being set.
- FFMPEG Codecs now use the latest FFMPEG 6.1.1
- Some users report that drm_hwcomposer made their devices crash in cases like hotplugging the display, so we decided to make an option to fallback to gbm_gralloc + drm_framebuffer with GRALLOC=gbm HWC=default
(We will figure out a better name and HWC switching soon, this is just temporary)

Some changes here will be backported to other versions later.

New BlissOS Zenith builds released with some minor changes:
- Update kernel to 6.6.15
- Users can now be able to disable BLE_VENDOR_CAPABILITIES . Not every Bluetooth card (especially old Bluetooth 4.0 one) can be able to use this feature, and it can even cause the device to not working. Boot with BT_BLE_NO_VENDORCAPS=1 to disable it if you want.
- Users can now be able to disable the entire Bluetooth LE support from Bliss. This is for older Bluetooth card that doesn't have BLE (below Bluetooth 4.0). Boot with BT_BLE_DISABLE=1 to disable it if you want.
- Fix virgl doesn't recognize Venus Vulkan HAL.
- Users can now be able to create custom VPN profiles in Settings
- Fix Gapps crashing by building with x86_64 version of Gapps

This will be our last BlissOS Zenith build that is based on BlissOS 16. It is also the last build that ship with Kernel 6.6. Stay tuned as we are preparing something new and exciting 👀.
