Transcension balance improvements — Incremental Adventures News

This update mostly aims to improve the experience of Transcension layer 2+, but helps a bit with layer 1 as well.

Lowered the price scaling of Transcension upgrades after the third (for all layers). Points spent on the old price that would now be cheaper are auto-refunded.
The base diminishing returns of TL2+ was softened (0.65 > 0.7). Meaning TL1 points now provide more TL2 points (after the first). This also applies to higher layers.
Increased the amount of transcension perk points that are provided for transcending layer 2+ (it now multiplies by ten per layer, up from five).
Ascension and Transcension perk points are now also rewarded for lower layers if they are available, when ascending/transcending higher layers. This way manually claiming them prior to resetting a higher layer is no longer required for maximal perk points.
Reworked how the top row is positioned when you have the ascension dashboard enabled, aimed to make its content less "jumpy". This works best for resolutions wider than 1200px, but should be better for any resolution.
Increased the maximum obtainable offline progress cap from 5 to 7 days, obtained after roughly 213 days of playtime (including offline time). The scaling is exactly the same as it was before, the hardcap is just higher.
Added a timer to the transcension layer tabs, to provide some extra information about TL2+ runs that isn't on the ascension dashboard
All "Buy multiplier" options that were referring to manual buys were renamed to "Manual buy multiplier", to prevent confusion between autobuy settings and manual options.
Removed the minimal manual buy multiplier from the options tab (it's still available on the prestige tabs), because it felt out of place at this point.
