we do allow some new features here, if they are not too invasive.
Otherwise, this branch is only for bug-fixes.
Overview of Changes from GIMP 2.10.10 to GIMP 2.10.12
=====================================================
Core:
- Add an "Incremental" option to the Dodge/Burn tool, which, similarly
to the Paintbrush, Pencil, and Eraser tools, applies the effect
incrementally as the pointer moves.
- Curves now have a concept of smooth vs corner points: smooth points
produce a smooth curve, while corner points produce a sharp curve
(previously, all points were smooth).

- Search the user font directory path on Windows (since Windows 10,
non-admin users have the ability to install fonts). This is only a
temporary hack until fontconfig adds proper upstream support:

Plug-ins:
- Exported profile and data format strategy updated in several file
plug-ins.
* When not saving a profile, we always export as sRGB data, as most
viewers would not display the image properly otherwise.
* When saving a profile:
* If a profile was manually assigned, we always export to the
assigned format, hence pixel data is converted accordingly, whatever
the work format.

The following plug-ins were updated: JPEG, PNG, TIFF and WebP.
- TIFF plug-in now supports layer export.
- Add accelerator on "Save color _profile" item in JPEG export so that
all items in the dialog have keyboard accelerators.
- Add accelerator on "Save color _profile" item in JPEG export so
that all items in the dialog have keyboard accelerators.
- Add a "Save color profile" checkbox in WebP export and remove the
"Advanced Options" expander (all metadata and profile writing
options are now directly visible).
- Process cases of non-conformant TIFF file with extra channels while
ExtraSamples is not set by assuming the first extra channel is a
non-premultiplied alpha channel and outputting a warning. In the
future, this should be updated further by a dialog asking what to do
