Browser library v14.1.0

Most important enhancements

Implemented Selector Prefix and small Bugfixes (#2332)

With prefixes to selectors, it is possible to define i.e. an iframe selector, that shall be prefixed to all selectors used in the future. Prefixes have also a scope, which has been added in 14.0.0. This means, that the prefix is only valid for the scope it has been defined to and is automatically removed when the scope is left. Scopes can be Global, Suite and Test/Task.

Selector Prefix can also be defined on Library import.

Browser library v13.5.0

What's Changed

This version improves the functionality of Record Selector by adding free text edit for generated selector and ability to test with highlight where the selector is pointing to.
When running Browser with enable_presenter_mode=True will stop and open selector recorder if a selector fails. The recorded selector will then be used to retry the keyword in question. This allows you to fix with one test execution all changed selectors.
