Release v1.18.7

IMPORTANT CHANGE:
UUID-s in LSX files generated by versions before v1.18.6 had their last 8 bytes swapped (e.g. 00a09d42-c23c-48b0-cc90-7fc6bd6c3d9e instead of 00a09d42-c23c-48b0-90cc-c67f6cbd9e3d). This meant that the UUID-s didn't match references found in other files. v1.18.6 changes LSX UUID format so it is now unpacked correctly. It is recommended to delete all LSX files you converted from LSF previously and re-convert them from LSF again using v1.18.6.

Changes:

• Add support for LSF v7
• Fix error when LSJ serializing certain types

Release v1.18.6
