✨ Highlights

• Motion data can now be exposed through DS4 reports or standard HID Sensor mode, with a configurable coordinate frame and improved Windows sensor compatibility.
• ControlApp adds options for USB output report transport, stick dead zones, and LED control; standard users can save shared settings, and incompatible settings now explain why they’re locked.
• ControlApp no longer requires the ASP.NET runtime to be installed separately.
• Improved HID mode restart reliability and added System log entries and error details for failed controller power-ups.
