Full Changelog: v1.5.1...v1.6.0

StreamDeck Plugin for X-Plane 12 (StreamDeck plugin)

What it is

xp_streamdeck is a native Elgato Stream Deck plugin for X-Plane 12 on macOS. It turns any key on a Stream Deck (tested on the Stream Deck XL) into a control surface for the simulator — toggle the gear, fire any CommandRef, write a DataRef, or display a live readout (altitude, heading, QNH, …) right on the key.Under the hood the plugin talks to X-Plane's built-in Web API on localhost:8086 (REST + WebSocket). There is no custom XPLM C++ plugin to install — X-Plane 12.1.1+ ships the API enabled by default, the plugin connects to it directly. The motivation was simple: on Windows, [PilotsDeck] covers this need beautifully. On macOS there was no equivalent — only keyboard-shortcut workarounds. This project closes that gap.
