Main change

This is a bug fix release of Gemini 3h.

A few notable improvements:

• fix reads during proving on CPUs with more than 32 cores
• proving performance improvements on all platforms (should reduce number of misses)
• reduce auditing and proving disk bandwidth usage on Windows
• pause farming and plotting during proving to improve proving success rate

The rest of changes are internal.
