1.7.0

This release brings support for MacOS!
The basics things are working, but it is far from feature parity with Linux. I developed this in a VM, so bugs on real hardware are likely. If you have a Mac and no idea what to do with your free time, i am very happy to accept pull requests / work on issues.

A lot of things were changed under the hood to make this possible, which should bring better performance and stability on all platforms.

Besides that, the following things have changed:

Features:

• The binary prefix used can now be configured, and is used consistently across all modules. Set --binary-prefix to iec (default), si or jedec.
• AMD GPUs now have a much better name, if the file /usr/share/libdrm/amdgpu.ids exists. For example my dedicated GPU, which was displayed as AMD/ATI Radeon RX 5600 OEM/5600 XT / 5700/5700 XT, is now AMD Radeon RX 5600M.

Logos:

• MacOS
• CachyOS small (@sirlucjan, #220)
• MSYS2 (#219)

Bugfixes:

• the --file option, which can be used to display the contents of a file as the logo, is now working again.
