[Suggestion] Add job queue in the bottom of Calibre #61

Hello, it'd be nice for ACSM Input to show the Jobs queue in the bottom of Calibre. I was using https://github.com/ping/libby-calibre-plugin and it shows the number of jobs i queued and I feel that it's so nice. So far with ACSM Input I was always just guessing whether it was working in the background or not. An indicator would be nice. Thank you!

EDIT: I set Calibre to automatically process ACSM files added to certain folder, so no progress bar whatsoever. ACSM Input just ran in the background and suddenly a new title popped up in my Calibre usually.

Wow, that's a cool plugin.

I never looked into how Calibre's Job queue works, but I'll check out how that plugin does it and see if I can add it. Might not be this easy, though - the Libby plugin is a GUI plugin while mine is a FileType plugin, and it's more difficult / not possible for FileType plugins to interact with the GUI, so I'd have to use the same hack (2nd embedded GUI plugin) I did for the toolbar button / GUI elements.
