Blox7 0.2

Smoother games. Joins used to freeze for about 2 seconds. Now it's under half a second.

Fixed Mocktail skill issues

• The main loop hammered Roblox's render thread with a call the Android app never even makes, up to 400k times a second (about 2 CPU cores busy on the home page)
• Every asset got read in full on open, so each join re-read Roblox's 19 MB shader pack
• Texture overrides were on for everyone, hashing every texture for files that don't exist (up to 800 ms after joins)
• ETC2 textures were read straight out of slow upload memory (up to 790 ms for a big one)

Also fixed

• Joins and minimizing don't rebuild the GPU device from scratch anymore
• Audio stays open between games instead of freezing for a second to reopen
• Join on a game's Servers page starts that server in Blox7
• Shift lock keeps the cursor centered like the Windows client

Not code-signed yet, so SmartScreen may warn on the first run.
