How do I upgrade from 1.0.0?

To be perfectly honest, if you are happy with 1.0.0 and it does everything that you need it to, there is no need to upgrade. Unless there are features in the changelog above that you need. There is no actual 'upgrade' procedure. If you want to use 1.0.2, you will have to do a fresh install.
