This release adds a telemetry "ping" on load.

As an independent developer, it's beneficial to both me and the people who use my devices to know which devices are used the most. This change adds a small amount of telemetry to this device that runs when you add the device to your Live Set. It assembles a short string containing the device name, the hostname of the computer it is running on (not the IP), the type of OS (Mac or Windows), and the CPU type (e.g. "arm64"). This message is sent to a computer that I own and operate, who appends this message to a log file.

The device will function as normal if the telemetry fails for any reason. The telemetry does not block the loading or operation of the device.
