Changes since 1.7.0-alpha01

Features

Multiple Platforms

• The clickable modifier now responds to NumPadEnter and Spacebar, too, in addition to Enter
• LocalLifecycleOwner moved from Compose UI to lifecycle-runtime-compose so that its Compose-based helper APIs can be used outside of Compose UI

iOS

• Improvements in touches processing to detect if touches were meant to be delivered to interop views, or should be processed by Compose

Desktop

• Implemented Drag-and-Drop from AOSP: Modifier.dragAndDropSource and Modifier.dragAndDropTarget

Resources

• Now the gradle plugin generates resources map to find a resource by a string ID
• To avoid constant reading raw font bytes on each Font usage on non-android targets, there was added the font cache. Android has own font cache inside the platform implementation
