Hello again!

   Qsynth 1.0.5 (end-of-winter'26) is out!

Qsynth is a FluidSynth [2] GUI front-end application written in C++ 
around the Qt framework [3] using Qt Designer.

Change-log:
- Regression to the option to change the UI language translation, which 
was percluding the whole translations/localization effort (probably 
since its inception on v0.9.6).
