Bugfix release with minor fixes to several regressions in A67, minor parsing improvements and typo fixes, and updates to GUID database.

new GUID database generated by Linux Vendor Firmware Service, about 3x larger than before, major thanks to @hughsie.
Fixes:

workaround for MAX_PATH limitation for UEFIExtract in Windows (requires Windows 10 1607 or newer OS version, and a registry change), thanks to @NikolajSchlej.
fix for CI/CD pipeline to generate proper Windows x86 builds for UEFIExtract and UEFIFind (they were secretly x64 for several past releases), thanks to @NikolajSchlej.

A bugfix release, with huge thanks to all the people that reported those new bugs.

New features:

Replaced AMI NVAR parser with KaitaiStruct-based one. This is another step towards "minimize manual parsing" goal stated by rewriting FIT/ACM/BootGuard parsers in KS, other NVRAM-related parsers will follow in the next updates.
Added fuzzing targets for libFuzzer-compatible and AFL-compatible fuzzers, which already uncovered a treasure throve of issues. Fixes are now in development, will be gradually included in the next updates.
Added --help (-h) and --version (-v) to UEFIExtract and UEFIFind, this makes them easier to use in scripts.
Fixes:

Universal macOS package for UEFITool is an app bundle again, thanks to @makigumo and @mikebeaton for reporting.
Unicode text search is working again, thanks to @nightgolfer and @mikebeaton for reporting.
UEFIExtract and UEFIFind can again be built with slightly older versions of CMake, thanks to @platomav for reporting.
Issues in descriptor and capsule parsing are non-fatal now, thanks to @platomav for reporting.
"Extract body" action did not work for some section types.

New features:

native UI dark mode support provided by switching to Qt6 for all release builds. Confirmed working on Windows 11, macOS 13, Ubuntu 22.04 LTS and FreeBSD 13.1 with Qt 6.4.2. Thanks to @yeggor, @vit9696 and @NikolajSchlej.
Windows builds split into modern win64 (using static x64 build of Qt 6.4.2) and legacy win32 (using static x86 build of Qt 5.6.3, supports legacy Windows version down to Windows XP). If you use a modern windows, please try win64 build out, as it might have uncaught 64-bit MSVC-specific bugs. Thanks to @NikolajSchlej.
Support for AMI v3 protected ranges hash file. Thanks to @cybojanek for the initial pull request and @NikolajSchlej for the final implementation.
Fixes:

Qt6 started using sse2 for real, and that uncovered a crash reported by @4e4o and @stuarthayhurst, that then got fixed by @NikolajSchlej.
CMake config files lacked install targets for all tools, so cmake --install did not work. Does now thanks to @NikolajSchlej.

New features:

it is now possible to paste GUIDs in raw EDK2 format into Search window as is without manual re-formatting, thanks to @mikebeaton
support for HiDPI displays, thanks to @NikolajSchlej
Zlib-compressed sections used on AMI-based boards for AMD CPUs are now supported, thanks to @NikolajSchlej
Fixes:

several small fixes for crashes, thanks to @yeggor, @hughsie and @NikolajSchlej
fix for OpenBSD builds, thanks to @klemensn
Notes:

had to switch to using a monospace font for the whole UI due to HiDPI requirements. If you don't like the new UI look, please open an issue.

This release is full of minor improvements and fixes for minor issues that laid unresolved for several years due to them being so minor.
It also adds FreeBSD to the list of supported OSes thanks to @pkubaj's effort to make the tools buildable there.

New features:

support for x86-64 128Kb Recovery Startup AP Data, a special 16 byte entry at a fixed address inside a Padding file in some PEI volumes on x86-64 PCs, thanks to @NikolajSchlej
support for AMI ROM Hole files, that need to remain at fixed base addresses inside the image, thanks to @NikolajSchlej
Bug fixes and small improvements:

fix for a crash during ME FPT parsing, thanks to @retpoline for reporting and @NikolajSchlej for the fix
fix for builds on Windows with MinGW, thanks to @llxiaoyuan for reporting and @NikolajSchlej for the fix
fix for builds on multiple BSD variants for multiple architectures, thanks to @pkubaj, @vit9696 and @NikolajSchlej
fix for C++17 compatibility, thanks to @yeggor
fix for CMake files to make UEFITool compatible with Qt 6.0/6.1/6.2, thanks to @NikolajSchlej
fix for OSes that call Qt5 qmake not just qmake, but qmake-qt5 (Fedora, FreeBSD), thanks to @ValdikSS
fixes to make static analysers happier, thanks to @NikolajSchlej
hack to make Kaitai-based parsers do one less memory copy, thanks to @vit9696 and @NikolajSchlej
new FlatHub app for UEFITool and the files required for it, thanks to @vulpes2

added support for CMake builds for UEFITool (requires Qt6), thanks to @NikolajSchlej
added more Lenovo-specific GUIDs to the built-in GUID database, thanks to @crass
added several new static analysers (PVS-Studio, CodeQL, SonarCloud) to CI/CD pipeline, fixes most of the issues spotted by them, thanks to @NikolajSchlej

The first release of 2022 is mostly about testing the new universal binaries for macOS (i.e. when the single binary is built natively for both x86-64 and arm64), but it also has some improvements and bugfixes:

added support for parsing some some HP images that use EFI_GUIDED_SECTION_LZMA_HP GUID for their LZMA-compressed sections, thanks to @yeggor
added support for "Extract Uncompressed..." and "Uncompressed Hex View..." actions in UEFITool, both are useful in expecting the raw uncompressed data of compressed items, and will help catch and fix some otherwise invisible issues like #178, thanks to @NikolajSchlej
added support for proper parsing of ME File Partition Table header version 2.1, improved parsing of the previous versions 1.0 and 2.0, thanks to @NikolajSchlej and @platomav
fixed CI\CD, updated its configuration to use newer runners, fixed some Coverity warnings found because it's working again, thanks to @vit9696 and @NikolajSchlej
built Qt 5.6.3 as universal library for macOS, and updated unixbuild.sh and CI\CD to generate unversal binaries instead of just x86-64 ones for macOS, thanks to @vit9696 and @NikolajSchlej
