Wine 4.9 has arrived

Hot on the heels of the previous release, Wine 4.9 is here with some welcome changes. Here's a quick list taken for the announcement page.
  • Initial support for installing Plug and Play drivers.
  • Support for building 16-bit modules in PE format.
  • A lot of code moved to the new KernelBase DLL.
  • Various game controller fixes.
  • Use higher performance system clocks if available.

On top of these changes, Wine is also now prepared for Ethan Lee's FAudio update with support for OperationSets. OperationSets allow changes to be made to multiple audio tracks at once like starting multiple voice tracks at exactly the same time, for example.

Thanks to the Wine team and Ethan Lee for the continued updates!
