Released mostly to address 0.22.0 introduced bugs (sorry for those)

Changelog:

• Change: Close panel on right-click (due to using the right button for other interactions- you need to right-click the panel you wish to close) [requested by thelefthorse]
  
• Change: Move storage filters under contents sections
  
• Bug Fix: Resources to be sold to the vendor was stolen by the crew and brought back to storage [reported by NetWitch[
  
• Bug Fix: Loading device production settings were overwritten to default state
  

Up next would be to address the growing device panel (maybe by adding scroll), extend the research tree (pipe transfer speed, locked filters) having module using hull plates, adding quick resupply dock port, introduce loan repayment rewards, maybe introduce multi-language support and many more


Sooooo there is a lot to do :D
