The UA string used in "Get List" should be generated to match the Zeno default generation scheme

The UA string should be generated to match whatever Zeno would generate by default. Okay to fix in a separate issue.

Hi @willmhowes, I’d like to take up this issue and implement the fix for matching the User-Agent string with Zeno’s default generation scheme.

My plan is to:

Add a helper function in the configuration layer to dynamically generate the UA string based on Zeno’s default pattern using the current version info.
Update the relevant part of the Get List command so that it automatically uses this generated UA when no custom User-Agent is set in the config.
Verify that the final header matches Zeno’s default UA format.
Once implemented, I’ll open a PR for review to confirm that the UA behavior aligns with Zeno’s default generation logic.

Could you please assign this issue to me?
