New build of Private Win10 v0.50a

 Finally I finished the new build: https://github.com/DavidXanatos/priv10/releases/tag/v0.50a

A large parts of the code base have been reworked to solve some more fundamental issues of windows firewall handling, hance it took so long.

Most  issues have been fixed and the usability greatly improved. Also many  new features have been added, priv10 now shows in addition to the  firewall log also a list of all open sockets with data rates. The tool  is also capable of showing the remote host names for remote IP's  wherever possible it shows the domains as queried by the application as  reverse DNS is very unreliable in the age of CDN's hence its used only  as a fallback.A new feature called Tweak  Guard monitors the state of the applied privacy tweaks and warns, or re  applies (depending on the setting) when a tweak has been un done.An  other new feature, the Rule Guard, monitors firewall rules and prevents  3rd party changes when desired, or just warns the user (depending on  the setting), this is especially useful to ensure apps from the windows  store wont get internet access, as the msft store always auto adds allow  rules without asking the user.Last but not least the overview page now features an own event log showing priv10 activity.
