This is a development release leading towards the 0.14 series.

## What's new in Cog 0.13.90?

- cmake: Enable libsoup3 usage by default, USE_SOUP2=ON can still be specified
  to build against libsoup2.
- cmake: Require version 3.12, which is the same minimum as needed by WebKit.
- cmake: Link the same wpebackend-fdo library in all components to avoid
  crashes due to multiple copies loaded with different behaviours.
- cmake: Fix generated .pc file when using an absolute directory for the
  CMAKE_INSTALL_LIBDIR option instead of a relative one.
- core: Add "Try again" button to default error pages.
- gtk4: Fix rendering with drivers that support OpenGL 4.
- wl: Avoid crashing due to missing callbacks by explicitly binding to
  supported versions of Wayland protocols.
- wl: Fix the build with COG_WESTON_DIRECT_DISPLAY enabled.
- wl: Fix fullscreen surface dimensions when using SHM buffers.
- wl: Add keybindings to refresh the current page (Ctrl-R, F5).
- x11: Fix underlinking when the --as-needed linker flag is in use.
- x11: Fix rendering in non-composited (traditional) window managers.
- drm, gtk4, x11: Factor out and reuse the GLES textured quad painting code.
- drm, wl, x11: Add refresh rate reporting to let WebKit pace rendering to
  match the output device.

## What is Cog?

Cog is a suite of utilities for the WPE WebKit port, including a reusable
library (libcogcore), a launcher (named "cog" as well) suitable to be
used as a Web application container and a reusable library, and a tool
to control the launcher remotely (cogctl) using D-Bus.
