Bugfix - Fix crash when keychain job takes longer than expected: #11361
In 5.1.1, we introduced a timeout for keychain jobs that killed them when their execution time exceeded 5 seconds and log this to allow debugging of problems related to secrets handling.
Apparently, there are valid cases in which these jobs can take longer than the expected timeout, e.g., when the user needs to unlock their keychain first or configure it otherwise.
We now let the jobs run indefinitely and log every 5 seconds whether the job is still running.

Bugfix - Prevent permanent deletion of files when disabling VFS: #11331
When a user disabled the virtual files feature on Windows, all currently dehydrated files were deleted accidentally. On the server those files where still available in the trash bin. This regression was introduced in the previous release 5.0.0.

Bugfix - Crash when accepting a notification: #11226
We fixed a potential crash when clicking on a notification.
#11226
Bugfix - Fix crash on start-up when starting shell integration: #11280
A possible crash has been fixed that could occur during start-up, when the shell integration started doing requests before the client itself completed starting up.
#11280 #11288
Bugfix - Properly schedule the sync after an account was added: #11308
We fixed a bug where a folder was scheduled to be synced before the account reported it was ready. This resulted in the sync having no effect and the folder was then only synced once we polled the etag.
#11308
Bugfix - Don't start credentials save jobs during shutdown: #11313
Due to a bug we "re saved" the credentials during application shutdown. As the application was quitting while the jobs where running we might have encountered corruped credentials or crashes.
#11313
Have fun!
