Add support for Blender 5

Only a few small missed touch ups were required for Blender 5 compatibility. Btw, Blender’s new Color Temperature for light objects is not utilized in BlenderDMX, we rather use our own Color Temperature calculation which is working for both Eevee and Cycles.

Allow to synchronize the start of DMX recording

When recording DMX as key-frames, it is useful to start the recording in Blender based on cue timing in the DMX console. The new BlenderControl GDTF device and support in BlenderDMX allows to trigger the auto-keyframe and the animation/timeline play state from DMX. See details in the documentation.

Eliminate issue with misplaced beam geometries

We have hopefully fixed the cause for beam and other geometries to sometimes be placed in wrong location due to the 3D cursor not being at origin. Scanner (moving mirror) primitive type geometry has been added.

Improved Programmer state storing

Previously, upon reopening a scene, the fixtures’ programming was lost, unless a keyframe was stored or DMX values were saved in an external DMX controller - this update adds automatic remembering of the internal Programmer state to keep the programing. Color Temperature channel has been added to the default MovingBeam fixture.
