Multiscale-statistical-analysis

Overview
This patch fixed some issues with the failsafe not ending the importing process, causing it to run in the background. The threading backend has now been reworked and has removed threading entirely.
Changelog
Project Files/Documentation
- PyPi README now links to PyPi webpage (92)
- Added PyPi license badge to README
- Update security policy for v0.4.X (95)
Enhancements
- App now checks for MountainsMap installation at startup, and prevents import of surfaces if not installed (78)
- Added warning against using mouse and keyboard during surface import (94)
Bugfixes
- Removed threading backend, now using standard functions
- Resolved TypeError (pickle '_thread.lock' object) being thrown when starting up surface importer (90)
- Resolved issue with import thread not terminating after failsafe is triggered (91)
- Failsafe did not trigger during MountainsMap startup configuration window (93)
- Triggering failsafe did not allow for opening any of the successfully created result files (96)

Overview
This release brought along the addition of the surface importing tool. The user now has the option to open surface files, and then imports these surfaces MountainsMap® (developed by [Digital Surf](https://www.digitalsurf.com/)). These surfaces are then analyzed using scale sensitive fractal analysis, and the results are then exported to a user-specified folder. These results can then be imported into the *Multiscale Statistical Analysis* software as they normally would.

***DISCLAIMER:***
*In order to use the results data, these surfaces need to be analyzed at identical scales. This issue will be fixed at a later release.*

- *Resolved issue where Windows would not continue interaction process after the initial launch of MountainsMap, never interacting with the process (83)*

Overview
This release is regarding a complete overhaul of the dialog generation classes and plot fit functions to become more easily manageable. More of these backend changes will come soon. This was also a quick patch regarding a previous issue that was thought to have been resolved regarding divide by zero errors. These issues should now be fixed.

This release also involved improvements to the community/repository general guidelines, as well as publicly releasing the project as a package on [PyPi](https://pypi.org/project/multiscale-statistical-analysis/). There are still some issues to be worked out with using the package, but the installation process is functional.

Changelog
Project Files/Documentation
- Restructured project files by moving python code to the `src` directory, and created community health files (51)
- Created a python package that can be found on [PyPi](https://pypi.org/project/multiscale-statistical-analysis/) (35)
- Updated README with PyPi badge (b4817ce)
Enhancements
- **Cleaned up repetitive code (33)**
- Regression fit graph dialog generation is now more manageable/future-proof, removing repetitive code using a list to store generation properties (41)
- Cleaned up and restructured `RegressionPlot` fit functions are now nicely packaged within a helper function, making later updates easier (26)
- The `CurveFit` class in charge of many statistical calculations is now static, replacing the need for `CurveFit` instances being used in many places (43)
- Simplified discrimination and scale plot menu event calls in `__main__.py` (49)
- Cleaned up repetitive `StatsTestsUI` `FTestDialog` statistical functions, creating needed helpers (48)

- Resolved issue with divide by zero errors not appearing on debug screen (19)
- Resolved issue with `scipy`'s `OptimizeWarning`'s not displaying on the debug screen (26)
- Resolved issue where adding the `--windowed` flag in `PyInstaller` prevented the app from launching
- *Resolved issue where directory structure broke import statements needed to run the application (55, issue occured within this release)*

Overview
This release is the kickstart of this project and took place in order to submit this software in a state that was usable by [Digital Surf](https://www.digitalsurf.com/). After sitting dormant for a few weeks, this project was finally needed by WPI's Surface Metrology Lab. This release does some general bug fixing to the user interface, creating better error handling, workbook usability, and much more.
