[Release] Anycubic Photon Mono X Poller

A device driver that polls the wifi connection of Anycubic Photon Mono X (and 6k, maybe other) 3D printer.

Right now, it checks the status of the print. Eventually, I may add the other command to check sysinfo, wifi settings, etc.

I created it with a contact sensor, open for printing, closed for idle (More of a story about this later)
I added a presence sensor, present if the last connection attempt worked, not present if it didn't.

Contact Sensor...

My previous printer would raise the built plate all the way to the top when it finished a print. For years, I have a contact sensor up there. When the plate raised that high, and stayed there, it would trigger a rule to inform me that the print was done.

My new printer (Photon Mon X 6K) only raises the print plate about 50mm after it completes, so the contact sensor method would no longer work. That motivated me to write this driver, and add the contact sensor functionality.

Some tweaks and updates today
