Bonsai 2.7

[glopesdev]

This feature release adds support for built-in documentation of core and community packages and brings improvements to interoperability with hardware protocols. New UI functionality for replacing, renaming, and finding operators has been added, together with a new system for building custom visualizers directly in the workflow.

All reactive operators have been moved to a common namespace, and support for concurrency control has been added. Several namespaces and packages have been refactored in preparation for increased cross-platform targeting and increased support of .NET 6.0 in subsequent feature releases.
