VLC Discord RPC v1.6

Initial jar release, its runnable and has the dependencies within it. For information on how to run refer to the readme.

java -jar VLCDiscord-RPC-v1.6.jar --hideCPS true

If you get a np_metadata_full not found, that is completely normal it means its your first start and you have not ran the extension yet in VLC, just go under view and press the extension name to activate it and then play a song. You should now be able to start the program correctly.

This addition should allow for album art should your music file have art metadata associated with it. If not use something like AudioRanger to add an album picture and artist details.
