Support GitLab if Possible

[Zren]

The GitLab API is a little different than the GitHub API. I'd need to fetch 2 requests (issues + merge requests), then merge them sorted by most recent. I'd also have to add a new configuration field for the domain of the gitlab instance.

Hi,

Thanks for the applet. It's looking cool on desktop.

It there any reason for having GitHub and GitLab applets as two separate packages?

The APIs are different. If I wanted to I could abstract the common elements and make a 1 huge widget, but that'd be annoying to work on. I also wrote a phabricator widget which requires you provide an API token.

Gerrit support would be nice too. I wonder how that would look like, for example, with Qt repositories.
