Fixed applet filename issue + expanded MCU definitions to support more chip IDs

Windows users:

Download mdloader_windows.exe and applet-mdflash.bin and put them in the same folder.

Linux users:

Download mdloader_linux and applet-mdflash.bin and put them in the same folder.
chmod u+x mdloader_linux to make it executable.

Mac users:

Download mdloader_mac and applet-mdflash.bin and put them in the same folder. If downloading with Safari, mdloader_mac with have a .dms extension appended to it. This is fine.

chmod u+x mdloader_mac to make it executable. (chmod u+x mdloader_mac.dms if downloaded from Safari)

Expanded Chip ID definitions within mcu_t

• Expanded mcu_t definitions to reflect broader ATSAMD/E chip ID support. (Note: This release is broken. Use 1.0.5.)

.hex support, auto port detection, fixes

• Adds support for .hex files
• Adds --first option which waits up to 60 seconds for the first detected device. This allows the keyboard to be flashed without the need for another keyboard to execute the command.
