Application has been tested with clinfo version 2.1.16.01.12 and above

Added basic Multithreading support to improve Application Launch response time
Updated ReadMe , About GPU Viewer section.
Fixed a bug introduced in last release where the application did not lauch if vulkaninfo is not available.

Improved Vulkan apiVersion detection , Device Extensions Version Detection and Instance extension Version detection. Now, the Application is not bound to a limit, the new code should be able to handle the version detection for the future releases without any issues.

The Application has been tested with Vulkan Loader 1.0.66 without any issues.

This project aims to capture all the required/important details of glxinfo and vulkaninfo in a GUI. The project is being developed using python 3 with tkinter (python3-tk). All the required/Important details were extracted using glxinfo/vulkaninfo with the combination of grep, CAT , AWK commands and displayed in the front-end. There is no hard OpenGL Programming involved, until glxinfo and vulkaninfo works the GPU-viewer will also work
