v2.20.0

Changes

• We now check for the "Displays have separate spaces" option being enabled on startup, because several things are not working properly in a different space management mode. (#392)

• fix bar being unhidden after wake if it was hidden (#477)
• fix hidden windows not properly triggering the space_windows_change event (#492)
