Release V12.1 - Hello PawnIO, Fan Curves, Battery fixes

[corando98]

PawnIO,

PawnIO will be replacing WinRing0 for TDP control and reading some sensor values for OSD, next build will drop WinRing0 support completely. Website for more information, https://pawnio.eu/.
Safe, signed, and compliant driver that replaces WinRing0, this allows the user to play anticheat games such as EAC, it also does not flag AV like WinRing0 does as of recent updates.

PawnIO is relatively new in the scene and more testing is required, currently testing support for GPD Win5, Z2 Extreme devices such as Legion Go 2 and Xbox Ally X are pending support in the driver, with a pull request to add their CPU to the supported list.
(namazso/PawnIO.Modules#41)

A TDP control method dropdown has been added that automatically picks the best TDP control method for your device:

• Legion devices automatically use the Manufacturer WMI method
• Options include: Manufacturer WMI (if supported), PawnIO, and Winring0 (soon to be dropped).
• Includes a button to install the PawnIO driver. PawnIO driver can also be installed manually if desired.

New Features:

• PawnIO introduction and easy install method.
• Added hotkey to trigger Legion Desktop controls using CTRL+SHIFT+D.
• Legion Go fan curve setting:

- Quick tab battery tile: (Shows Left/Right legion controllers battery charge, status, charging state) - New Legion Controller OSD item: More OSD customization options: - 2 additional larger options (XX-Large and XXX-Large) - New color picker for both labels and values. - Battery time-to-full OSD estimation (shows estimated time until fully charged)

Fixes:

• Fixed shortcuts sending alt-tab when executed from the quick tab.
• Fixed battery indicator coming out of sleep/hibernate, stale values.
• Adjusted Legion Desktop controls to use the Left stick as arrows.

I chanced on this repo by luck, but I must say, that it is incredible piece of software. Trying it out on Lego2 and starts to love it because of per game configs/mappings. Great job :D

Any links to donate few $$ for excelent work?

Thank you for the kind words. I'll look into adding a "buy me a coffee/energy drink" link. Although keep in mind it is 100% not required, I do this to close the gap to what Legion Space has to offer and to expand support.

Like my work, drop a tip: https://paypal.me/corando98

Note dropped a hotfix for a few issues about 30 mins ago if you see issues with the quick tab.
