gnucash: update to 4.9.

4.9 - 19 December 2021
The tenth release of the 4.x Stable Series
Between 4.8 and 4.9, the following bugfixes were accomplished:

    Bug 797502 - (RTL) - Right edge of the reports are locked while scrolling down

    Running gnucash in Hebrew, the right edge of the reports are locked while \ 
scrolling down and do not scroll with the rest of the report.
    Bug 797618 - Spanish translation of Shares and Stock
    Bug 797678 - OFX importer should supplement, not replace, existing Notes \ 
(and Description and Memo) fields

    Add an "Append" checkbox to the bottom of the "Generic import \ 
transaction matcher" window to the left of the "Reconcile after \ 
match" checkbox. When ticked, this causes the imported Description/Notes to \ 
be appended to the matched transaction Description/Notes respectively. The \ 
selected ticked/unticked state of the "Append" checkbox is saved in a \ 
key value pair for the import account, so the next import for that account will \ 
automatically default it to the saved state. As these mods are limited to the \ 
code for the matcher window, this should work for all the imports that use it - \ 
ie ofx & csv file imports (both tested) & aqbanking (cannot test).
    Bug 797772 - Allow reconciliation report to double filter by both posting \ 
and reconciliation date
    Bug 798222 - Account search dialog: Pushing enter does nothing
    Bug 798266 - Dropdown picker menu for category does not appear
    Bug 798313 - "File/Import/Import Transactions From CSV" crashes \ 
Gnucash.
    Bug 798320 - Error message indicating a crash of GNUcash when closing \ 
application - MacOS 10.15.7 (19H1419)
    Bug 798325 - New Currency for Venezuela (VED)
    Bug 798327 - Ofx import stops too early for multi-account OFX and one \ 
account has no new transactions
    Bug 798335 - No longer possible to change trading account

    Strip trading splits only if "Use Trading Accounts" is enabled for \ 
the book so that users who want to manage trading accounts by hand may do so.
    Bug 798341 - Right align in Hebrew - Account screen
    Bug 798346 - crashes when running check & repair
    Bug 798352 - Decimal Precision when Entering Mutual Fund Transaction

    Let xaccParseAmount parse up to 12 decimal places instead of 8.
    Bug 798382 - Typo corrections in comments

The following fixes and improvements were not associated with bug reports:

    More memory leak plugging and GList efficiency improvements.
    Fix build with cmake older than 3.18
      3.18 introduced 'cmake -E cat', but we still have to support versions
      starting from 3.14.
    [account-piecharts] don't use gnc:make-internal-option
    Several improvements to the experimental IFRS cost-basis report.
    Fix two minor issues with displaying links in the Document Link dialog.
    Fix obsolete links to bugzilla.gnome.org in translations.
    L18N: Fix glossary/es.po:906: duplicate message definition...

    901: ...this is the location of the first definition
    [budget-flow] delay creating exchange-fn until a valid budget exists

    because it needs budget period end-date.
    [options.scm] Addon previous commit... need to initialize with guid
    [options.scm] gnc:make-budget-option stores guid instead of object

    because object may become stale if UI is used to delete it, leading to stale \ 
pointer and segfault. storing guid is safer, and will return null if budget is \ 
deleted.
    Support SEPA internal transfer
    Fix issue with failure to run reconciliation with all accounts present in a \ 
multi-account OFX file. Do that by saving a GList of statements, rather than a \ 
pointer to a single one. Also freeing of info happens during the call to \ 
process_next_file.
    Import of OFX files with many securities opens too many matching dialogs \ 
Because ofx import is currently split per target account, and since each \ 
security has its own accounts, importing such OFX is a tedious process. The fix \ 
is to only split the transactions if we identify a potential transfer, currently \ 
based on amount, date and accounts. To do that, we insert transactions one by \ 
one into a list, making sure we have not already inserted one that has the same \ 
date, and the same absolute amount. If we have, we keep this potential transfer \ 
for a second phase. A naive approach would loop through added transactions for \ 
each new transaction by that ends up being O(N^2), which matters if we have many \ 
transactions. Instead, I'm using a hash to make this O(N log N).
    [date-utilities.scm] remove unused date selectors code & string
    Adjust GNC_DEFINE_TYPE_EXTENDED_END
      To match new signature of g_once_init_enter and g_once_init_leave.
    glib headers should not be included with 'extern "C"'.
    Add explanatory note for gnc_add_scheme_deprecated_module test code

    [test-engine-extras] don't create splits of opposing amt/value signs
      Splits' value and amount should never be of opposite signs. Fix
      test book which had created this incorrect value/amount
      pair. Strengthen env-create-multisplit-transaction to disallow
      test book errors.
    [trep-engine] new option "Date Filter" to specify dates to filter by
    [dialog-sx-since-last-run] don't allocate repeatedly to combine strings
    [test-transaction] "Report Currency" renamed to "Report's \ 
currency"
    Separate the warnings for "cut split/transaction" and
      "delete split/transaction"
    [gnc-autoclear] Move autoclear algorithm into gnome-utils
    GSettings - fix GObject warning when old prefs-version is unset
      This will happen when current master (future 5.0) has been run
      at least once.
    [utest-gnc-pricedb] add tests for gnc_price_list_equal
    [reconcile-view][bug] dr/cr query tests amount instead of value
      Because split->amount and split->value are generally of equal
      sign, EXCEPT in stock transactions whereby split->value can be
      zero and split->amount is non-zero. e.g. a stock split
      transaction. Querying the split amount instead will allow stock
      accounts with stock splits to be reconciled.
    [split-register-model.c] Hide price==1 for zero-amount splits
      mainly of interest in zero-amount zero-value splits in the stock
      register eg dividend splits.
    [core-utils] introduce gnc:format
    (gnc:format str [binding value]...) str will contain ${binding} which will
      be replaced to value.
    [test-core-utils] uses srfi-64
    [import-main-matcher] show destination acct for auto-match
    GSettings - add 'deprecate' and 'obsolete' conversions for user preferences
      'deprecate' is technically a noop. It serves to remind
      maintainers the 'deprecated' preference is to be obsoleted in
      the next major release. 'obsolete' goes one step further in that
      it will cause gnucash to reset the preference, effectively
      clearing the value stored in the preferences backend. This is
      the final phase of a preference. Following this it will be
      completely removed from the GSettings schema in the next major
      release. Notes * 'deprecate' and 'migrate' are related. Both are
      a reminder the preference is to be obsoleted in the next major
      release. 'deprecate' does only that though while 'migrate' will
      also trigger a copy of the old value to a new location in the
      databse. * This commit readds a couple of preferences that had
      been removed in the past to be able to properly obsolete them
      (and to test the obsoleting code)
