- Updated method signature for \IPS\Node\Model::getLastCommentTime().
- Added a $count parameter to \IPS\Content::definiteArticle/_definiteArticle(). If an integer is passed, a pluralized phrase will be used, if available. You should add pluralized strings for any __defart_* strings you've already created. The key should be in the format __defart_*_plural.
