Changes in v0.2.0

• Add "about" window
• Add PC keyboard support to piano

Now you can use your regular keyboard to play the piano on chordcat.

Keybindings are similar to VMPK
i.e; QWERTYUIO will play the notes CDEFGABC. The key above Q and W on the PC keyboard (num 2) will play the black key between C and D which is C#.

Similarly, you can use ZXCVBNM to play the notes which are an octave below, just like VMPK.

Additionally, You can use the + and - keys to shift the current octave up and down respectively.
