Adds the media and hand-crafted release notes for the upcoming 1.9.0 release, and refreshes the README hero.

What's in here

  • docs/assets/releases/1.9.0/ - 5 PNGs + 2 GIFs captured from a live Obsidian 1.12.7 instance (dark theme, default appearance) running current master, using a realistic reading-tracker demo vault: native date-widget editing, fluid type-aware property creation, bulk edit with conflict policy, Auto Property multi-select with descriptions and the "new" badge, Auto Properties settings cards, tag rename with vault-wide autocomplete, and the suggester's native row actions.
  • docs/releases/1.9.0.md - benefits-first release notes. Image URLs are raw.githubusercontent links pinned to the 1.9.0 tag, so they resolve once the release is cut (this commit is an ancestor of the tag). After semantic-release publishes the GitHub release, its auto-generated body gets replaced with this file via gh release edit.
  • README: the 2021 hero gif is replaced with the new fluid property-creation GIF (relative path, renders on the branch already).

Why

1.8.4 shipped in January; since then master accumulated the native-widgets editor (#168), fluid property creation (#170), bulk edit (#124), Auto Property upgrades (#123/#139), value autocomplete (#125), the expanded API (#120), and a long list of hardening fixes. The release notes showcase these with real screenshots instead of a raw commit list.

Release/migration impact

Docs-only: no source, manifest, or build changes. The docs commit type does not affect semantic-release's version calculation (the pending feat commits already force 1.9.0).

Verification

  • Screenshots captured via Electron capturePage from the live dev vault (the dev:screenshot CLI serves stale frames for occluded windows - bypassed deliberately).
  • No writes were made by UI flows during capture except the intended demo rating: 9 add; the bulk-edit conflict modal was cancelled.
  • pnpm run lint and pnpm run test (384 passed) are green.

Adds dark-theme screenshots and GIFs captured from a live Obsidian 1.12.7
demo vault (reading-tracker scenario) for the 1.9.0 release notes, plus the
hand-crafted notes themselves under docs/releases/1.9.0.md. Replaces the
2021 README hero gif with the new fluid property-creation GIF.
