PR #2565 addresses issue #2347 wherein APC BXnnnnMI devices are logging LOWBATT/REPLACEBATT messages.

BVK750M2 (which appears to have been released 2021/2022) appears to be affected by this, at least the one that I purchased 1Q 2025 in the US.

Other models in this lineup per APC's product brochure are BVK950M2 and BVK1200M2.

This PR does the following:

  • addresses APC model BVK750M2 false indications of LB/RB #2942
  • updates upshid-ups.c to add APC BVKnnnnM2 to the detection code and also increments the driver version number
  • updates NEWS.adoc to note the update
  • updates UPGRADING.adoc to note the update
  • updates driver.list.in to add the model
  • updates usbhid-ups.txt to add the model

Comments, suggestions, corrections, testers? Apologies if I missed anything as I'm relatively a novice at this. Thank you, and a big thank you to @jimklimov for the original tweak in #2565.
