WinNUT 2.2.8719

What's new in 2.2.8719

Introduction
After thirty-three months since the last release v2.0.7722.30975, with work by @gawindx, myself and several other contributors to the WinNUT project, I'm proud to offer the latest stable release of WinNUT. This marks the first stable release since @gawindx kicked off the effort to modularize WinNUT and improve maintainability and stability. Unfortunately we've lost contact with them, but I decided to take over and relocate the project in an effort to leave WinNUT in a stable and efficient state. I hope you find this release meeting your expectations and needs for UPS monitoring.
Functional/event handling improvements
Many functional changes under the hood have been made to WinNUT, starting with the code modularization kicked off by @gawindx. Further work was done to improve & fix handling power event changes, connection changes and other events from the UPS. Windows 10+ notifications should now be working, as well as the stop action system and Full Shut Down commands from the UPS. The Error Reporting system is more stable, and the automatic reconnection system is fully working. UPS Load calculation has also been reworked.
