Add XIVOmega Plugin

[shingonati0n]

XIVOmega

A Steam Deck Plugin (for Decky Loader) to mitigate latency on the Critically Acclaimed MMORPG Final Fantasy XIV. This plugin is the evolution of xivomega which in turn is based on XivMitmLatencyMitigator, XivMitmDocker and XivAlexander. Mitigation is done by using containers via Podman, which comes bundled with SteamOS.

Nothing that's your fault, apologies. Been busy with work and life and didn't get to many PRs, let alone yours 😅.

Hi @TrainDoctor, changes have been made as requested. Note I also added a small update to main.py to handle an scenario I ran into recently (wlan0 not active at boot time). Please take a look, thanks!

Closing as untested. If you are able to locate a tester in future we will happily accept a re-submission.

@shingonati0n, if you are able to update this PR with a version of your plugin (please also make sure to bump your version by at least a patch to ensure no conflicts will occur in CI/CD etc) that you have verified with the latest stable versions of Loader then I can re-open this PR. (Please note the below text only applies if you are able to make the requested update, thanks for your understanding). The more plugins that can come back the higher chance you are able to see a tester for your plugin is my hope.

I am currently experimenting with a concept for testing plugin submissions and plugin updates. I would request that you submit testing reports for at least 2 other plugin submissions/updates (preferably the oldest PRs still active). Then if no other plugin author (as I will be encouraging all others to do the same) or tester submits a testing report I will request that a member of the SDH team tests your plugin update/submission according to the testing guidelines.

Hi @TrainDoctor sorry for the delay, IRL happening. I do actually have an update I need to push, is it OK to reopen this PR or should I open a new one?? And yeah, that testing you are doing sounds good. Thanks

A new PR with any important information from the thread summarized into it will probably be best, since it would make the new PR easier to read with previous context. Make sure to bump the plugin's version you submit by at least a patch to ensure it gets uploaded by CD.
