To ensure better stability of future releases, we need to adopt multiple stages in the release cycle. As we already label Alpha, Beta, Candidate and Stable differently, simply adopting this classification system already does everything for us. This also allows us to maintain compatibility with the existing system, while offering something new entirely.
Qt defaults to give every QAction a TextHeuristicRole, which means that certain key words will cause Qt to change how the QAction behaves. We do not want this, so we explicitly assign it to have NoRole instead.
Fixes#323
This fixes a bug with older Qt versions which would not remove the modal window from the parent in the setModal() call, resulting in an unusable parent window.
Fixes#368
In order to work around a bug in the OBS Studio UI code, we have to swap our modal status right before showing and right after hiding, so that the OBS Studio tray menu continuous working correctly. This is a bit of a weird solution, but it does work as expected.

Implements a manual and automatic update checker with support for both release and testing update channels, allowing users to stay as up to date as possible. It is fully compliant with privacy regulations around the world, as it stays completely silent and inactive until the user gives the Ok to connect to GitHub for the latest releases.
