KOReader 2024.11 "Slang"

![koreader-2024-11-slangie](https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/cb9e68bf-aa0f-47c7-a093-46fbf8bb19c3)

Some of you on Android may have had dictionary issues. That should be fixed now.

Connecting to Wi-Fi should be more reliable on platforms where we manage it ourselves, most notably Kobo (koreader/lj-wpaclient#11).

Color is now supported when reflowing (koreader#12085).

This month's logo was contributed by @Sonnenfee
