What's Changed

Major feature: TCP listening on external ports exposed to the outside world

By default, rqbit now listens on ports 4240-4260, publishes those ports over Upnp (which exposes them on your router for port forwarding from the external world), and announces itself over DHT.
This means that external world might connect to it (if forwarding worked properly).

If you don't like this, turn off with --disable-tcp-listen and/or --disable-upnp.

Major feature: Desktop configuration

Desktop client can now be configured. A couple screenshots:

The configuration is first asked on first run, then it's persisted, but can be changed by going to settings (button in the top-left corner).
