Some updates for 2.93:

• Small vertex groups showing up should no longer be as prevalent of an issue thanks to a patch by Alexander Gavrilov.
• "X Mirror" is now called "Vertex Group X", although there are plans to remove it and merge its behaviour into the X axis symmetry option, which would be great.
