Update to version 1.0.3

Update to version 1.0.1

Changelog:

- CSW2015 dictionary
- Ability to create brand new dictionaries. In the lexicon chooser,
  scroll to the bottom choice, "Add new lexicon..." and open up a raw word
  list (.raw, .txt) or a .dawg file
- Ability to edit existing dictionaries. Next to the lexicon chooser, press
  the Edit button
- Ability to generate GADDAGs from within the interface.
  Click "Build lexicon database..." in the Settings pane to do this.
- All lexicons and configuration files can now be customized and loaded from
  outside of the layout. User-created lexica are automatically saved in a
  preferences directory designated by Qt for Quackle
- New DAWG format. The new format supports MD5 hashes on the dictionary
  so that you can tell with certainty if you have the dictionary
  you think you have.
- New GADDAG format. Uses MD5 hashes to insure that a GADDAG is properly
  matched to a DAWG.
- GADDAGs and DAWGs are now a versioned format. So it will be easy to change
  and upgrade them going forward.
- The lexicon field picked up a copyrights.txt file which detects
  appropriate dictionaries by their hashes and automatically decorates
  them with copyrights.
- Fix up strategy fallbacks. All English dictionaries will fall back to using
  TWL06 strategies if they don't have any strategies of their own. All other
  dictionaries will fall back to using default strategies (which have rather
  thin coverage right now).
- Bugs with alphabet lengths were fixed. Alphabets of >32 letters are now
  supported. Which means creating a Slovak version is now possible.
