0.21.2

Changes to the video take structure has caused a lot of follow up problems,
- esp within patches, these may take some time for all to come to light,
- but here's some more fixes, you may need to revisit any patches and reassign the correct takes
Fixed quite a few things I'd broken on the video editor recently
- still a little underused so not heavily tested
Changed auto bailing out of rendering when 90% disk space, new threshold set to 2GB disk space
Fixed instant fade bug for manual controlled rendering
Minor graphic shadow fix on aux macro knobs
