On master, easylogging's Debug level was disabled unless OVRAS was built
with debugSymbolsAndLogs (ENABLE_DEBUG_LOGGING). The qt6 branch switched
to qDebug() and lost that: debugLoggingEnabled was left unused, and all
debug output reached the log. On the Steam Frame it filled with
"updateAllPulseData done." about every 11 ms, as the audio tab reads the
microphone's mute state on every tick.
setUpLogging() now disables debug output through a logging filter rule.
QT_LOGGING_RULES="*.debug=true" takes precedence and turns it on again
for troubleshooting without a rebuild.

Steam writes every VR app the user owns into its generated
steamapps.vrmanifest, installed or not. Whoever owns OVRAS on Steam
therefore always has steam.overlay.1009850 registered, as a steam:// URL
without a working directory, and --force-install-manifest failed with
"Could not find working directory of already installed application:
VRApplicationError_PropertyNotSet" (found on the Steam Frame).
Such an entry has no manifest file to remove, so OVRAS now leaves it
alone and adds its own manifest. Whether SteamVR accepts a second
manifest for the key, and which entry it then uses, is not documented:
logApplicationEntry() logs what SteamVR reports for the key after
installing, so a test on the Frame shows it.

On the Steam Frame, VR_Init failed with "Installation path could not be
located": the SDK's lib/linuxarm64/libopenvr_api.so (2.15.6) reads the VR
path registry from the fixed path /data/work/openvrpaths.vrpath instead
of ~/.config/openvr. The SDK's bin/linuxarm64 library of the same version
uses ~/.config/openvr; the vrdashboard template ships it and was verified
on the Frame. It is added as a new file (third-party/openvr had no
bin/linuxarm64, and "bin" is gitignored, hence force-added), and aarch64
builds link against and ship it. x86_64 and Windows are unchanged.

The first deploy to the Steam Frame aborted in install.sh: OVRAS creates
its QApplication before it handles --force-install-manifest, and Qt's
default platform plugin (xcb) aborts when there is no display, as over
SSH. Registering and unregistering draw nothing, so the generated
install.sh and uninstall.sh now run them with QT_QPA_PLATFORM=offscreen.
The normal start keeps DISPLAY=:0, as rendering needs a real context.

When -desktop is given on the command line then the settings menu is shown on
the desktop instead of an vr overlay.
When -nosound is given on the command line then there are no sound
effects.
Added chaperone profiles
Added separate supersampling sliders for applications/compositor
Added asynchronous reprojection on/off switch
Merged in Microphone Control Overlay
Added Push-to-Talk profiles
Updated to OpenVR 1.0.3
Requires at least SteamVR beta 1477423729.
not compatible with OpenGL versions >= 3.0. NVIDIA does not care, but
unfortunately AMD does.
Also tweaked some other qt & opengl settings for more pleasant visuals.
