Handle multiple Denon devices on the network. #14

Previously, we couldn't get this repo to connect to two decks. It would only seem to connect to one. After investigating, it looks like it was more about how the listeners are handled.

Instead of listening for one device then stopping we keep listening for new devices and run a callback when one is discovered. From there, it asks what services are available and does what it should do.

We tested on: DN-X1800 + (2) SC5000 decks, Denon Prime Go.

Just an added note:

The left deck shows up as /Engine/Deck1 and Engine/Deck2 for layers A & B.
The right deck also shows up as /Engine/Deck1 and /Engine/Deck2 for layers A & B.

We're not sure why it's not /Engine/Deck3 and /Engine/Deck4.

In the program I'm writing, I ended up using the IP address to differentiate the decks and then the layers. Not necessarily needed for this project. But FYI.

Oh. I just noticed there was a different branch where you were working on this. Perhaps I didn't need to even do this. 🤷🏻‍♂️ 🤣
