Upgrade to Python 3.8 #17

Hi, thanks for this appimage.

Correct me if I'm wrong. Currently, this package is buildt with Python 3.4, which means we will unable to get python3 support if our python version is more than 3.4.

According to the release schedule

Python 3.4 has now reached its end-of-life and has been retired. No more releases will be made.

Would it be possible to upgrade to latest Python 3.8?

IIRC, this is based on Ubuntu 14.04 LTS. That does not seem to come with python3.8 so I am not sure this is possible without having to install additional packages. And then I wonder, whether the appimage will still work
