This change will allow us to bring new updates in the GUI because the Qt GUI is being actively developed. Users of wireshark should not be affected by this change since the new GUI should be the same as the old one, only it runs in Qt, not GTK. More info is available in the release notes here https://www.wireshark.org/docs/relnotes/.
Added in #226.
