External microphone processing, custom screens for other boards, and AirPlay 2 on the Show 8 2nd gen.

  • External microphone processing (#407, thanks @dmit2k): an interface for a separately installed audio processing helper. Microphone ASP selected in Home Assistant chooses Built-in or External, and Microphone ASP active shows which one is supplying audio. Built-in is the default, and nothing changes unless you install a helper and choose External. If the helper fails or stops, the device goes back to Built-in. See docs/external-asp.md.
  • Custom screens (#447, thanks @nuno407): a board's own full-screen pages can be added from their own files, with an Idle screen select to show one in place of the clock. It's for people building TECHO5 for other boards. Nothing changes on the Echos.
  • AirPlay 2 on the Show 8 2nd gen (techo5-athena #5, thanks @R3xRay): the kernel has the firewall match AirPlay 2 needs, so it no longer falls back to classic AirPlay. The new kernel installs itself after the update and settles after about 5 minutes.

Please open an issue if something doesn't work.
