🚀 New Stuff and quality of life changes

• Updated all browsers and fingerprints. Run scrapling install --force after updating to refresh them.
• Added a --version flag to the CLI by @ETM-Code in #303 (Solves #299)

🐛 Bug Fixes

• Fixed the session-level proxy argument being silently ignored in HTTP sessions, which could leak your real IP (Solves #295). Note that mixing a session-level proxy with a per-request proxies argument (or vice versa) now raises an error instead of one being silently dropped.
• Fixed browser navigations failing when combining init_script with user_data_dir (Solves #294).
• Fixed encoding detection when websites quote the charset value in the Content-Type header by @Bortlesboat in #323.
• Fixed an IndexError in adaptive element relocation when auto_save is enabled by @Mubashirrrr in #340.
• Fixed spiders' checkpoint and cache saving crashing on Windows by @MrStarkEG in #344.
• Fixed incorrect similarity scoring in find_similar for elements with mismatched attribute counts (Solves #322).

Docs

• Clarified that the default installation includes the parser engine only, and the fetchers/spiders need the extras (Solves #343).
• Fixed the Docker image name in the remaining examples by @evanclan in #315.
• Fixed a broken link in the contribution guide by @Bortlesboat in #320.
