Working on some more features for ThatView, including Paste Progress and Loading indicator.

I also added PDF Preview functionality. When clicking a PDF to preview, the PDF view is set to a low opacity to allow for continued visibility of directory and UI. Clicking on 'Hide Views' will show the PDF view in full opacity. The PDF preview supports mouse scroll to change pages and also includes buttons up/down to change pages.

Currently working on programming in a cancellation system for when large directories are being loaded and the user wishes to cancel it and browse to another directory. This will allow ThatView to have better performance and avoid unnecessary processing.

I was able to get it functioning utilizing the CancellationTokenSource class.
