Aurora Connector

[J0B10]

Description

There are a ton of different standards out there for controling RGB lights from your PC.
While OLA (see #142) covers a lot of devices from the entertainment lighting industry we still lack a solution for all the various standards from the gaming industry.
Implementing them all in chatoverflow will be a nearly impossible task as they all have their own sdks which mostly don't even have java wrappers.

I think our best choice is to somehow connect to Aurora which is a well maintained project that aims to unify light effects for all kind of devices, written in C# and C++.

Another choice would be the RGB.net framework, but it is not that actively maintained.

Unfortunatly I still have no idea how such a connection could work...

I had a talk with one of the developers on their discord and it seems like a good solution.
We can comunicate with Aurora using a RestAPI, but we need to add some code to Aurora so it has a chatoverflow profile and is able to interprete the incoming data.

Is somebody experienced with c# ?
