Release v0.4.1

Release notes for CoyIM 0.4.1

We are very proud to release CoyIM 0.4.1

This a small point release that primarily improves the flow for in-band registration. It removes a large number of the
previously recommended servers since they no longer support registration, and solves other issues related to
registration. This is the first release containing rudimentary support for a global application stylesheet. This will
later provide support for customized styling by the end-user.

This release supports Golang 1.14 and above.

• #851 Display links and instructions from servers when attempting in-band registration
• #852 Add basic support for CSS styling of certain components
