Log message:
editors/featherpad: update to 1.6.3
V1.6.3
---------
* Check for nullity before calling `deleteLater()` — they say that's needed \
with Clang's optimizations enabled.
* Fixed an asymmetry between the forward and backward searches/replacements if \
some text was selected.
* Made replacing after searching easier (without needing to clear the selection \
first).
* Fixed showing of ampersand in the recent files menus.
* Fixed highlighting of C++ numbers with single quote as separator.
* Added more explanation on searching and replacing to Help.
