Show firmware version in web UI

[Lohrer]

Currently the AmpliPi software version is shown at the bottom of the web UI, we should add the firmware version as well and report it in our logs to give full visibility to the fw version.

Our API currently reports the version in the info field.

• [ ] Visualize the fw versions (if any) on the settings/About page (web/src/pages/Settings/About/About.*)
• [ ] Report the fw versions (if any) in the logs (the FW version is read in ctrl.reinit() in amplipi/ctrl.py)

The Info model can be found in amplipi/models.py

Here's what it looks like on a main unit without an expander:

{
  "version": "0.3.5+b09fc53-update-spotifyd",
  "config_file": "house.json",
  "mock_ctrl": false,
  "mock_streams": false,
  "is_streamer": false,
  "online": true,
  "latest_release": "0.3.5",
  "access_key": "",
  "lms_mode": false,
  "fw": [
    {
      "version": "1.8",
      "git_hash": "1743bfb",
      "git_dirty": false
    }
  ],
  "stream_types_available": [
    "rca",
    "airplay",
    "spotify",
    "internetradio",
    "dlna",
    "pandora",
    "plexamp",
    "aux",
    "fileplayer",
    "lms"
  ]

Here's what it looks like on an expander:

{
  "version": "0.3.1",
  "config_file": "house.json",
  "mock_ctrl": false,
  "mock_streams": false,
  "is_streamer": true,
  "online": true,
  "latest_release": "0.3.5",
  "access_key": "",
  "lms_mode": false,
  "fw": []
}

Also for browsing the API I suggest using either insomnia or our hosted interactive api docs. They can be found at settings->about->Browsable API

@linknum23, should we consider showing up to 6 expansion unit firmware versions?
