v4.4.2 Bug Fixes, Footer and DB Backup

Features

• Footer: Added a footer showing current version installed and link to Discord for support
• Refresh Button: To ensure you're not seeing cached (incorrect) results on a series page (related to bug #44 and bug #46) - this will clear the series cache and re-pull results from the Metron API.

Back End

• Database Backup: Added database backup on startup if DB has been updated since last app restart. App will keep 3 recent backups.
• Lower Issue Packs in Results: Automated downloads could pull and issue pack (GI Joe 1-18) instead of (GI Joe 18). Updated scoring to rate issue packs lower and not auto-match.

Bug Fixes

• Incorrect Series Search: Revised series detail search to search on Series ID first and Issue ID if no Series ID present (this is needed for releases page). Closes Issues #44 and #46

New Requirements

• With v4, CLU now requires a local path to store thumbnails and the database. For a collection of 115K comics, you will need ~3GB of space for thumbnails.
• For the Pull List feature, you will need a Metron account
