HappyPanda X v0.4.0

This release features a working metadata fetcher queue to fetch metadata for galleries.

Metadata fetchers are installed through plugins. A plugin to fetch from EHentai is in the works and will be released by the end of the week here.

Also, if you encounter an issue, please report it or it might go unfixed for months until I discover it myself, which might never happen.
