Release 1.8.3

Fix Preferences missing from the standard app menu: 1.8.1's workaround for
LSUIElement (plain Window + openWindow) was never swapped back for a real
Settings{} scene after 1.8.2 removed LSUIElement, so there was still no
Preferences item in the app's own menu or Cmd+, binding, only a button in
the main window and a menu-bar-dropdown item. Restored Settings{} now that
the app menu exists to host it; menu bar dropdown and main window button
both use the standard openSettings()/SettingsLink instead of a custom
openWindow(id:). Net simplification -- removes the now-redundant window ID
and controller method.

All unit tests pass.

+### Fixed
+- **Preferences missing from the standard app menu.** 1.8.1's fix for Preferences (a plain `Window` opened via `openWindow`) worked around `LSUIElement` having no app menu, but 1.8.2 removed `LSUIElement` and the workaround was never swapped back — so there was still no "Preferences…" in the app's own menu or Cmd+, response, only a button buried in the main window and a menu-bar-dropdown item. Restored a real `Settings { }` scene now that the app menu exists to host it; both the menu bar dropdown and the main window's button now call the standard `openSettings()` action (via `SettingsLink` in the main window) instead of a custom `openWindow(id:)`.
