v0.51.8 Release

The default game version has been updated to v0.51.6-beta-hotfix-1 to v0.51.8, which includes all the changes and additions between those versions. This fixes a lot of long-standing bugs, enhances the default control configurations, and improves performance on portable systems like laptops and Steam Deck. Steam Deck performance in general still has a ways to go, but for now there are only a few minor enhancements to consider before adding additional content!
