Change From PyQt5 in GUI for MIT Compliance

Description of issue:

PyQt5 is GPL which requires the entire codebase to be converted to GPL. This is not a possibility, so we need to change the framework to something that is compliant with MIT.

changed the description

We have decided to go with PySide2 as very few modifications to the GUI are needed. PySide2 is LGPL which means that if we do not modify the library, then we can use it under MIT license. Waiting for confirmation on this before merge.
