OrcaSlicer 1.7.0-beta

New features:

• Single Extruder Multi-Material (SEMM) Support: Purge Tower/Ramming/etc (Compatible with ERCF/TradRack/MMU)

OrcaSlicer originated as a fork from BambuStudio, which, despite being based on PrusaSlicer, had removed the multi-material capabilities for non-Bambu printers. This led to OrcaSlicer initially inheriting this limited support. However, in this release, we have reintroduced the SEMM feature from PrusaSlicer. Users can now print in multiple colors on any printer, whether it's equipped with Prusa MMU, ERCF (from the EnragedRabbitProject), Annex TradRack, or a simple N-in-1-out extruder.

Due to complexities in the git history after integrating PrusaSlicer 2.4, GitHub struggles to extract PRs from the last release accurately. I had to compile the contribution list manually, so if I've missed any of your contributions, please inform me. I'll update the list as needed.
