Get a Direct Download Link to a Google Drive file through Python

Once launched, the program requests a Google Drive sharing link. This can be found through the Link Sharing feature of Google Drive. It doesn't work with Google Docs files - only actual files with a visible file extension in Google Drive. (for example: .png files, .pdf documents, or .mp4 videos)
The program then adjusts the URL to the direct download format - like when you click the Download button in Google Drive - and will print that URL to the screen. It'll also copy the URL to your clipboard, replacing what was there before (which was probably the original non-direct URL).
The GUI version of this tool runs using Tkinter.
