scorch v1.0.0 released + updates

Hope everyone is well. Sorry for lack of updates lately. Been doing a lot of random experimentation but haven't made too much progress with any particular project of mine.

But it wasn't all just messing around. I finally did a proper release of scorch with a few new features.

These changes make the workflow nicer.

I did experiment with changing from the gzip'ed csv database to sqlite3 but 1) sqlite3 is kinda a pain to use. I never liked SQL and the lack of built in query builders. Since I try to keep my tools dependency-less I didn't want to add SQLAlchemy or the like. More importantly 2) Right now I have routines to sort and filter data and those would need to exist both as sqlite3 queries as well as the existing python form. Not a ton of work but annoying duplication nonetheless. I might look at it again some time later but for now gzip'ed csv works well enough.

Other updates...

I have been experimenting with gutting much of libfuse that I don't need or use and attempting to optimize the data flow from reading from /dev/fuse device to processing and writing back. The problem is with trying to create code paths / abstractions which work both with regular read/writes from /dev/fuse as well as splice and vmsplice. 

I also started working on a menu for the upcoming open source 3DO ODE by fixel. I've just started and never have done 3DO development before (ironically) so it's still in the tinkering phase but the hope is to have a nice text as well as gui menu system with some extra features such as controller testing and anything else that might make sense.
