New Techniques:
- Added 'SF Symbol for vCard Menu' (to new main menu item)

Modifications:
- Added 'MyTagline' to the help output [Create Help and Display in Safari (Markdown Source)]
- Added comments throughout to clearly indicate the start of each menu item
- In [Embed-a-Update] section, changed the vCard menu icon to iOS 13 colors

Bug Fixes:
[in section: Determine if an alert should be displayed because a specified number of days have elapsed since the shortcut was last run]
- The 'Get File' action was incorrectly referencing a Dictionary value that didn't exist. It was referencing 'Settings File'; it has been corrected to 'Settings Path'.)
- The 'Get Value for Start Time in File' was incorrectly referencing (via a magic variable) the 'Get File' action in the previous section. Because of this bug and the previous, the shortcut worked as expected. Two wrongs made a right; sometimes you get lucky, even with bugs!)

Updates, 'Choose from Menu' items:
- 'Restore Shortcut From Folder': added Filter action to limit the list to shortcuts and to sort by shortcut name
- 'Restore Shortcut From File' and 'Restore Shortcut From Folder' changed to use a differed method to count the actions in the shortcut file: previously the 'Match' was used; now 'Split' is used. Since the Match action could not accomodate large files (if used, it would crash the Shortcuts app), a file size check was employed and the count was skipped if the file was larger than 250 KB. For more information, refer to the comments in the 'Restore Shortcut From File' item.
