0.336.0 Release

this release of tsschecker includes the following changes:

Full support for the Spring 2022 devices, including:

• iPad Air (5th generation)
• iPhone SE (3rd generation)
• Mac Studio
• Studio Display (AppleDisplay2,1)

Other Changes:

• Adds the ability to save blobs in a binary plist format (.bshsh2). - Authored by: @1Conan
• Changed --list-ios to --list-versions (to make the command represent what it does better.)
• Fix TSS Error messages.
• Remove old unnecessary windows parameters from makefile.am which will fully re-enable shared building (if desired).
• Update Auth version.
• Update documentation, especially around nonces.

Notes:

This release mitigates #23 - by compiling tsschecker for windows using a non-windows platform
so if you use the windows binaries provided here, you won't have issues saving updateinstall tickets.

#23 is not a tsschecker bug, it's an MSYS2/Cygwin bug, but i don't know if i should call it a Windows 10 (>1903) bug
since Windows 7 through Windows 10 1809 work fine when built using Cygwin or MSYS2.

But because you will still encounter this issue if you compile using Cygwin or MSYS2, i'll call this mitigated.

Remarks:

• Thanks for sending me the BBGCID for the SDX57M @ImTheRealNate!
• Thanks @1Conan for creating the .bshsh2 format!
