I said there would be no r3dfox 133, and well, there isn't. This is Plasmafox 133, using the nightly or Plasmafox branding due to having many changes that need to be tested and totally not because I'm a troll or anything. There may be bugs or issues with it, perhaps even previously fixed bugs could crop back up. r3dfox naming will return with 134.

There are also changes to the default theme. No more is Aero fog enabled by default. Instead, the default theme now has translucent backgrounds for elements that could become unreadable on some backgrounds.

The portable builds are fully portable, the profile directory is inside the browser folder. It does not touch appdata at all.

Notable bugs:
The 32 bit build is built with --disable-sandbox. With the sandbox enabled under Vista, the browser fails to open multiple processes which breaks the browser. The 64 bit build is fine. Considering Mypal68 globally disables the sandbox, I don't think it's that bad. If this really is a big issue then please pr a fix.

Changes on top of the previous 132.0rc-2 build:
No longer ships with VC++ & UCRT DLLs. If you need these, they're in the VC++_UCRT_DLLs.7z file. Required for use on 7 RTM, Not sure if there are any other platforms that need it due to VC++ and/or UCRT not installing on them.
Default theme now uses backgrounds instead of Aero fog.
Ability to enable modern or Windows 10 UI mode on all platforms in the settings page.
Older style now playing icon that doesn't override the favicon.
Side gloss on the window with Aero themes now shows again.
Native elements in XP (OCAPI) should look more accurate.
Redone native theme code from Marble. Marble improved upon the r3dfox code, and so I improved upon the Marble code. I love open source.

Haven't tested on XP (OCAPI) nor have I extensively stability tested.

Please let me know what bugs or issues you encounter with it.
