This is a double release of KVMD and uStreamer with improvements and fixes.
<!-- more -->
KVMD:
* Improved error message in login window.
* Added [HTTP API for HID](https://github.com/pikvm/kvmd/blob/master/kvmd/apps/kvmd/api/hid.py#L161). For example, press and release the Shift key:
```console
curl -k -XPOST -HX-KVMD-User:admin -HX-KVMD-Passwd:admin 'https://kvm/api/hid/events/send_key?key=ShiftLeft'`
```
uStreamer:
* Added timeout to vcos semaphore to prevent unexpected hanging of the OMX encoder (this should not happen about ever, but it is better to be safe).
* Fixed fallback to the CPU encoder when the OMX fails.
* Improved compatibility with some USB 3.0 video capture devices that may produce incorrect frames. The minimum frame size for encoding is set to 128 bytes.
* Added options to flip image and accept some color effects provided by webcams.
To update:
```console
rw
pacman -Syu
reboot
```
