Title: 0.1.0

cool new shit:
- dramatically improved stability
- it hasn't crashed on me yet. <= 0.0.3 crashed every ten minutes
- no configuration—when the app launches, it detects the computer's default output device and uses that for output automatically
- on quit, WavTap resets the system default device/volume to the state it was in when WavTap launched
- simplified menu: 'Record' and 'Quit'
- new app icon
- status bar icon becomes red while recording (immediate visual feedback, yo)
- status bar icon inverts color on click (idiomatic to osx, dogg)
- records in 16–bit by default instead of 32
- near-future goal is to respect your Audio MIDI Setup bit depth settings
- lots of small bugfixes

breaking changes:
- there's no longer a way to change the 'Record' hotkey
- and there won't be for a bit (until there's a proper Preferences menu)
- there's no longer a way to change WavTap's output device
- instead: quit the app, set the default output device in Audio MIDI Setup, and relaunch WavTap
- it now crashes if the system output device's sample rate changes
- prior to 0.1.0 it just made a high-pitched squelching noise (e.g. fax machine vomit)
- arguably this is an improvement
