V1.0.0 - GTK - Debian

First Version of this app! I will migrate it over to PyQt5 for the next release, which also will include a Windows version!

This version includes the following features:

• Upscale videos in the formats .mp4 and .mkv
• Upscale images in the formats .png, .jpg and .jpeg
• Change resolution multiplier from presets or set custom one that is smaller than 4
• Graphical file chooser

IMPORTANT: YOU NEED TO INSTALL FFMPEG IN ORDER FOR THIS TO WORK!

NOTE: Currently there's only a deb package, I will be adding a rpm soon
