Code migration to Qt

This release is a major step in evolving the project. Previous versions tested the proof of concept for PetroAlchemy, and the interest in the project led me to learn a new framework to improve code maintainability. The Qt framework has improved the UI and will make adding new features more flexible and faster.

• Migrated to Qt gui framework
• Improved UI
• Implemented Model-View-Controller (MVC) model

This is the first minor update to PetroAlchemy. Through initial testing and feedback, new features and improvements have been added. The update highlights are as follows:

• Easier installation on Windows
• Starting with v0.2.0 new releases will uninstall old releases on installation
• Add desktop shortcut to PetroAlchemy on installation
• Add feature to bulk import data from one excel file with multiple well names
• Add terminal decline for Arps decline curves
• Turned off plot reset automatically on decline curve update
• Improved documentation on buttons and uses
• New keyboard shortcuts to change current well being analyzed, ctrl+j (next well) and ctrl+f (previous well)
• added Help link to documentation in application

Thank you for the feedback so far. I will keep working to improve PetroAlchemy.

Created on Windows 10 64-bit machine. If you are using 32-bit windows, mac, or linux this installer will not work for you and I would suggest cloning the repository. There is one module hidden at the moment to pull recent EIA prices using an API key. If you are cloning the code for your own use let me know and I can help fix the EIA price issue. I plan to fix this in general in upcoming releases.
