Problems fixed
- After installing KiKit Action plugins from PCM the icons didn't show up and also, the action plugin caused the Pcbnew to hang after exiting. This was fixed.

- In certain situations, some tabs on the boards were missing. This was fixed.
- There was a bug with PcbWay assembly generator that prevented the users from using it, this is now fixed
