This commit introduces significant updates to the device factory system, enhancing the way devices are created and managed within the PepperDash Essentials framework.
The changes include:
- New attributes for device configuration and description.
- Refactoring of the device manager and essentials device classes to support new factory methods.
- modified factory classes for essentials devices, plugin development devices, and processor extension devices.
- The device factory interface has been updated to include a factory method for creating devices.
- Added a wrapper for the device factory to streamline device creation.
- Updated plugin loader to accommodate the new device factory structure.
Fixes#1065Fixed#1277
In an effort to make things easier for devs and end users, the plugin loading logic will now find .cplz files that are in the `Global.FilePathPrefix` base folder (/user/program{programNumber}/` on an appliance, `/user/` on a server). The same applies for IR files. This should make it so that individual plugin cplzs can be loaded via the VC-4 web interface.
