v0.3.4 Release

This is a subset of the full changelog. For a more detailed changelog see CHANGELOG.

Plastic first release v0.1.0

Working NES with all components, but not very accurate and missing many mappers.

Linux

SFML and GTK need the libraries in the system to be able to run. TUI does not need any additional libraries.

Windows

SFML has the libraries included for windows. TUI does not need any additional libraries for windows.

GTK` is not running appropriately, or I couldn't compile it correctly for windows so it is not included, if you managed to compile it for windows, then make an issue.

Also porting this to some windows GUI would be cool in a PR.
