Scene Holster 0.7.0 for Maya (maya script)

Switch maya project and scene at lightning speed!

UPDATE 0.7:

• Now supports Maya 2017 64
• Add new "Scroll system directory tree to currently opened scene" button
• System directory tree now uses a newer engine that should be more responsive
• Incoporated file watcher to system directory tree stays upated
• Re-written to support both pyside and pyside2 (both qt4 & 5)
• Experimental support for PyQt4/5. If both package exists, pyside will be used
• All new binary, tested on Maya 2017, 2016.5, 2016, 2015, 2014 64bit 

Known limitation: 

• System directory tree sorting only works under active maya project directory
  (selected directly from UI) for performance reasons :(
