Version 1.6.0 (2023-09-12)

Version 1.6.0 of the PlanarMechanics library. This version requires the Modelica Standard Library 4.0.0.

New components:

• PR #178: VehicleComponents: AirResistanceLongitudinal model for vehicles.

Improvements in this version:

• PR #192: PlanarMechanics.Sources.QuadraticSpeedDependentForce: delete redundant equations when resolveInFrame = frame_resolve.
• Issue #187: Types Color and SpecularCoefficient are obsolete and will be deleted in the next major library release.
  Corresponding types from Modelica.Mechanics.MultiBody.Types are used instead.
• PR #190: Sensors and Sources: use Modelica.Mechanics.MultiBody.Visualizers.Advanced.Vector for visualization of vector quantities (force, torque, etc.).
• Issue #172: PlanarMechanics.Examples.WheelBasedCraneCrab: fix typo in the example name (previously WheelBasedCranCrab).
• Issue #155: VehicleComponents: add PlanarMechanics.VehicleComponents.Wheels.BaseClasses to collect common wheel's elements.
