VR Auto-Optimizer 2.4.2

Highlights

• Reworked the desktop and MSFS toolbar dashboards with live GPU-Z GPU Load and VRAM-percentage readings while retaining simulator memory and CPU/MainThread telemetry.
• Added sortable session history, multi-record JSON export, confirmed deletion, simulator-version detection fixes, and updated comparisons without the retired 1% Low metric.
• Added profile-owned Minimize After Launch handling for companion applications.
• Improved Pimax identification using passive manifest and device-log inspection, and simplified the visible runtime panel so diagnostics never load or disturb the active OpenXR runtime.
• Corrected DLSS version formatting to four dotted components, such as DLSS v310.9.1.0; the version is shown only when MSFS has actually loaded the library.
• Expanded automated validation to 62 passing tests.
