v3.2-beta 1

This is a pre-release of the v3.2 beta, meant for testing.

To make things easier, I've provided some pre-compiled binaries for a few platforms. They include only the executable, and require the rest of the directory structure to work.

The pre-compiled binaries are provided for the following platforms:

• RPI4 32-bit (non-Dispmanx, built on RaspberryPi OS)
• RPI3 32-bit (non-Dispmanx, built on RaspberryPi OS)
• RPI4 64-bit (non-Dispmanx, built on Manjaro)
• RockPro64 (64-bit, built on Manjaro)

The binaries are further optimized through the GCC profiler, to provide maximum performance.
Please report any issues in this version (that did not exist in the previous stable) by opening new "Issues" here, on Github.
Kindly open one issue per problem, so we can keep it organized.
