Docs: document zone-based scanning; make version example non-drifting

The Scanning section only said 'per upstream OpenGD77', which left the
scan-list question unanswered. Explain that zones are the scan list, the
Zone Skip / All Skip flags, the start key and the Radio options settings.
Also replace the version example that goes stale every release.

+- **CRT-style shut-off animation** — when powering off, the current screen
+  collapses towards the middle (squeezed to a line, then a dot) like an old CRT
+  switching off, replacing the "Power Off" message. (Colour displays only.)
+
+## 0.10.1
+
+- **Fix:** the muted **"M"** indicator in the status bar overlapped the GPS text
+  when GPS was enabled. The header icon is removed; the muted state is shown by
+  the flashing red LED alone.
+
+## 0.10.0
+
+- **SMS recipient from contacts** — when composing a message, press **GREEN** in
+  the recipient field to pick the destination from your private-call DMR
+  contacts (or type a DMR ID manually and press **DOWN** to move to the text).
+- **Contacts list shows everything** — Menu → Contacts now lists all contact
+  types together under the title "Contacts" instead of defaulting to the group
+  filter; **HASH** still cycles the per-type filters (all / groups / private /
+  all-call).
+
+## 0.9.0
+
+- **Pride theme** — the status/header bar and the menu title bar are now painted
+  in the top rainbow-stripe colour so they blend into the background instead of
+  showing as white boxes.
+
+## 0.8.0
+
+- **Three new theme presets** (Display Options → "Theme"): **Red** (black-on-red
+  day / red-on-black night); **Neon 80s**, an 80s-synthwave palette that maps
+  several neon colours (cyan, magenta, violet, green, yellow) across the
+  individual UI elements over a dark background; and **Pride**, which paints the
+  background as a rainbow pride flag with black text and white menu/header boxes
+  kept readable over the stripes.
+- **Build:** each build now prints a per-region memory-usage summary
+  (FLASH / RAM / CCMRAM used, size and free) so the remaining headroom is
+  visible after every build.
+
+## 0.7.1
+
+- **Fix:** the radio **crashed** when navigating the Messages menu with voice
+  prompts enabled. Menu strings added after the voice-prompt pack was built map
+  to a table-of-contents slot that doesn't exist; the player read past the end
+  of the table. Such strings now play silence instead (also hardens the
