Python tools and extensions for sioyek PDF reader

Python wrapper and simple addons for the sioyek PDF viewer. Install using:

python -m pip install sioyek

Note that python executable name might be different in your system, for example it might be python3 instead of python. Also note that in some AppImage builds of sioyek, "%{sioyek_path}" doesn't expand to correct AppImage, you just have to replace "%{sioyek_path}" with the exact path of sioyek AppImage on your filesystem.

Addons:
