Improvements with respect to 2.6.0-alpha2

• Minimal connector size in the Cut tool was reduced to 1 mm #9500
• Icons were added to radio buttons in the Cut tool to make selection of connector type more clear.
• Windows and Linux specific: Downloading from Printables.com requires the user to allow this feature in Preferences for a specific executable. An extra dialog notifying about this is now shown on startup when the new version is first run.
