Log message:
editors/feathernotes: update to 1.4.0

This release includes two main changes:

  - The password protection is made stronger. Of course that is done in a \ 
backward compatible way, i.e., all old password-protected documents of \ 
FeatherNotes can be opened like before.
  - Since Qt6 refuses to open XML docs with "C0 control characters" in \ 
them (due to a backward incompatible change in Qt), all such characters are \ 
removed if encountered. Although control characters are rare and may enter a \ 
document only by being copied from outside sources, there were reports about \ 
documents that were opened by Qt5-based versions of FeatherNotes but not by its \ 
recent versions. All these issues are fixed now.

In addition,

● Theme icons are allowed as node icons by using their names.
● Replacing after searching is made easier (without needing to clear the \ 
selection first).
● An asymmetry is corrected between the forward and backward \ 
searches/replacements if some text was selected.
● Showing of ampersand in the recent files menu is fixed.
● The minimum required version of Qt is bumped to 6.5.
