v1.1.0 (#454)

### New features:
* Added support for converting Dominion JSON CVRs to generic .csv format (including precinct portions) (#404, #406, #407, #408, #415, #439)
* Added multiSeatBottomsUpPercentageThreshold option (#403)
* Added CLI option to convert Dominion CVR to generic .csv (#408)
* New GUI menu and conversion options (can now convert to CDF and convert Dominion to generic via the GUI) (#408, #421)
* Added Dominion Alaska CVR to sample_input folder

### Bug fixes:
* Batch elimination now works properly with singleSeatContinueUntilTwoCandidatesRemain (#396)
* In a multi-seat contest, if someone wins in the first round, we now automatically eliminate undeclared write-ins before we eliminate any other candidates; previously, we treated UWIs like a normal candidate, which meant we potentially eliminated other candidates with lower tallies first (#397)
* If UWI exceeds the winning threshold in the initial count, we no longer mistakenly elect this candidate (#398)

### Backend updates:
* Updated dependencies to latest version: JDK, JavaFX, Checkstyle google_checks.xml, Checkstyle plugin, org.openjfx.javafxplugin, org.beryx.jlink, org.apache.commons:commons-csv, org.apache.poi:poi-ooxml, com.fasterxml.jackson.core:jackson-*
* Added special code to test configs to obviate the need to update the version with each increment (#426)
* Updated tests and improved test coverage
* Copyright update (#414)
* Code cleanup

 ## Viewing Tabulator Output
 
 Tabulator output file names automatically include the current date and time, e.g. `2019-06-25_17-19-28_summary.csv`. This keeps them separate if you tabulate the same contest multiple times.
