Additional fixes and improvements

• FIX: Bookshare Ireland. EasyReader no longer freezes when attempting to open a book from the My Reading Lists option in Bookshare Ireland. 
• FIX: DAISY 2.02. Fix to ensure that spaces are shown correctly after punctuation in DAISY 2.02 books.
• FIX: DAISY 2.02. The 9.02 update included a fix to ensure page numbers were clearly identifiable in the Reader. In 9.03, a further fix has been applied to ensure that the new page number styling is only applied to page numbers with a numerical value.
• FIX: DAISY 2.02. Fix to ensure that headings within a DAISY 2.02 book are highlighted correctly when they are being read.

• FIX: Lines Visible. When the Lines Visible option is enabled in the text settings, a minimum line spacing of 200% is now applied. This helps to ensure that the text remains clear when using the Lines Visible feature.
