Feature: Revamped projects' default symbols, color ramp , and text format

This new version of QGIS has revamped the way default projects symbols are handled, aiming at upgrading its UI/UX as well as behaving correctly in multi-user environments. The changes include:

• Projects' default symbols and color ramps are now stored as symbology XML rather than references, improving portability and integration with external applications and services
• A new project-level default text format setting has been added to allow user defined configuration of the default project font for newly-added vector layers
• The user interface has been upgraded to make use of QGIS' symbol and color ramp buttons
