– Requested Feature! Added remove all recent apps. Longpress app or press Trackball in Recent Apps overlay

– Fixed Notification Shortcut alignment and spacing. Now draws and scales properly depending on available width. (Toggled on by default)
– Fixed exception in Notification Shortcuts causing Settings to crash on blank shortcut redraw
– Switched notification shortcut background pressed drawable to use notification_item's - will work with colorization to provide better theme consistency

– When setting the date to appear in the StatusBar, it now maintains the same font size as the clock
– Applied hwc prop change to [mostly] fix corrupted text issue
– Updated translations for existing languages and added new languages for: Romanian, Czech, Lithuanian, Portuguese, Slovak, Serbian, Turkish & Chinese traditional!
