Publish To PyPI #24

Publishing to the Python Package Index will allow users to install apx-gui without having to self compile by using the distro-agnostic tool pip.

Why would users want to do that though? the tools depends on apx being installed on the system which doesn't necessarily jive well with a python package

@coffandro @kbdharun A lot of automatic packaging tools depend on a package being available on PyPI to create a distro package. It would be extremely beneficial for those looking to use APX on other distros.

That does not really sound like a best practice to me. The apx GUI does not require many python dependencies if not zero at all, but it depends on some utilities like podman and apx itself. Not sure how PyPI would help here.
