2.0.0

Quickpassthrough 2.0.0 is here!

This has been a monumental task to get done and has been delayed many times.
However after 1 year of development time (with a lot of disruptions) it is here.

This release brings with it:

• A proper menu based dialog in the TUI for quided setup.
• A more readable source code! 🎉
• 2 DIFFERENT GPUS are required (unless you are doing this on a headless server)
• Supports dracut, initramfs-tools, modprobe, mkinitcpio
• Supports grub, systemd-boot(kernelstub), grubby
• Utilizes ls-iommu for probing hardware
• Colors! (please provide better colors if you have some! must be supported by terminal colors)
• Makes a backup of your existing files that will be modified on the FIRST run, if you want a new backup then delete the backup folder.
• See what changes will be made to the system by checking the config folder before proceeding with the installation.
