- show payment options in tabs: URI, Address or Lightning
- use vertical tabs to save space
- switch between QR and text views
- open standalone QR window through menu, instead of clicking on QR code

Each task we schedule on `TaskThread` can provide an optional `cancel` method.
When stopping `TaskThread`, we call this `cancel` method on all tasks in the queue.
If the currently running task does not implement `cancel`, `TaskThread.stop` will block
until that task finishes.
Note that there is a significant change in behaviour here:
`ElectrumWindow.run_coroutine_from_thread` and `ElectrumWindow.pay_lightning_invoice`
previously serialised the execution of their coroutines via wallet.thread.
This is no longer the case: they will now schedule coroutines immediately.
So for example, the GUI now allows trying to pay multiple LN invoices "concurrently".
This commit ports the work of EchterAgo and cculianu from Electron-Cash,
to implement a new toolchain to scan qr codes.
Previously, on Linux and Win, we have been using zbar to access the camera
and read qrcodes; and on macOS we used CalinsQRReader (an objective-C
project by cculianu).
The new toolchain added here can use QtMultimedia to access the camera,
and then feed that image into zbar. When used this way, zbar needs
fewer dependencies and is easier to compile, in particular it can be
compiled for macOS.
The new toolchain works on all three platforms, with some caveats
(see code comments in related commits) -- so we also keep the end-to-end
zbar toolchain; but at least we can drop CalinsQRReader.
The related changes in Electron-Cash are spread over 50+ commits (several PRs and direct
pushes to master), but see in particular:

This fixes the case where the user quits by pressing Ctrl+C,
and some other minor things.
There is still another issue that sometimes causes a segfault during shutdown...
Sometimes we want its "remember path" behaviour but it does not make sense to
parent the dialog from main window. When so, caller code no longer needs to
get a reference to a main window.
Also rm last usages of get_parent_main_window().
On Linux, when Electrum is executed from Appimage file, to prevent system library
inconsistence for Electrum and web browser and all issues involving that,
Electrum starts web browser and opens web page upon clicking on
'View on block explorer' by fork()'ing the process, unsetting
its custom LD_LIBRARY_PATH environment variable in the child process,
and calling webbrowser.open().
Due to incorrect usage of sys.exit() instead of os._exit() for child process,
Electrum (parent) can't be terminated and endlessly waits for child process upon
exit, while child process does nothing but still exists.
Fix this issue by using os._exit function, which should be used for
child processes (not only in Python).
Instead of single mpk_text widget for each ks and changing the contents
when switching, create an mpk_text widget for each ks and switch between those.
This allows putting the "show xpub on device" button inside mpk_text.
This commit adds support for the BitBox02 hardware wallet.
It supports both single and multisig for the electrum gui wallet.
To use the plugin a local installation of the BitBox02 python library is
required. It can be found on PiPy under the name 'bitbox02' and can be
installed from the bitbox02-firmware repository in the py/bitbox02
directory.
All communication to and from the BitBox02 is noise encrypted, the keys
required for this are stored in the wallet config file under the
bitbox02 key.
The BitBox02 registers a multisig configuration before allowing
transaction signing. This multisig configuration includes the threshold,
cosigner xpubs, keypath, a variable to indicate for mainnet and testnet,
and a name that the user can choose during configuration registration.
The user is asked to register the multisig configuration either during
address verification or during transaction signing.
The check the xpub of the BitBox02 for other hardware wallets, a button
is added in the wallet info dialog.
The wallet encryption key is fetched in a separate api call, requiring a
slightly tweaked override version of the wallet encryption password.
If an attacker has access to the process' memory, it's probably already game over,
still we can make their life a bit harder.
I really tried but failed to encapsulate this logic inside PasswordLineEdit.
The destroyed signal arrives too late.
deleteLater is not called.
__del__ gets called too late.
- add 'computing route' status for lightning payments
- use separate callbacks for invoice status and payment popups
- show payment error and payment logs in kivy

We are now giving every(?) hint possible to the MacOS file dialog...
The extension is put in the filename as before (which turned out not to be enough).
It is also set using QFileDialog.setDefaultSuffix, which again, turns out not to be enough.
In desperation, the file extension filter-list now contains *.psbt and *.txn as separate filters,
and the one with the expected extension is pre-selected. This seems enough...
A variant of WaitingDialog that runs the task in the GUI thread,
blocking the GUI. It is probably a code smell to actually use this,
as operations should not block the GUI... still it provides a middle-ground
between blocking the GUI without giving user-feedback and having to refactor
existing code (to avoid blocking).
