CHANGES FROM VERSION 15.0.0:

- Tab position! You can now change the opening position of new tabs. That's why the browser settings permission is no longer optional and requested for all users at install time.
- Dark mode support! When the system-wide dark mode is enabled, the options interface of New Tab Override is dark now.
- Added Ukrainian translation (Thanks, Bergil32!)
