Patch Tester 4.0.0 Release

This is the stable release of the Patch Tester 4.0.0. In case you have any issues with missing tables or updating over a previous installation, please uninstall the Patch Tester and remove any leftover tables in your database and do a clean installation.

Prior to uninstalling you may want to make a backup of your Github token so it is easy to restore it.

The release updates have been messy but I will do better with the next releases to really follow SemVer 😄.
