v1.6.0

What's Changed 🎊

This release helps make p5.js WebGL mode work more like 2D mode: shape drawing, transparency, blend modes, and strokes with support for line caps and joins. WebGL mode can now blend colors along vertices and curves in strokes in addition to fills. We've also included lots of bug fixes for text, textures, and gif exports, including letting you export gifs from setup(). Thanks @davepagurek for the summary! Thanks @limzykenneth for supporting the release process! - @Qianqianye 💜
