Fix for latest API changes

[gergy008]

With the latest API changes, I found that the plugin no longer works.

However, I have been able to get it to work but by copying the latest info from the app, importing this into blink-api.js Using a man-in-the-middle proxy, I was able to retrieve the following info:

/* - Pulled from the app on 8/10/2022 - country was already blank
{
"client_name":"iPhone",
"password":"-snip-",
"notification_key":"-snip-",
"client_type":"ios",
"email":"-snip-",
"country":""
,"app_version":"6.17.0 (2209271715) #e459ba4a8-mod",
"unique_id":"-use your own iPhone uuid-",
"device_identifier":"iPhone14,2",
"os_version":"16.0"
}
*/ 

This means your login() data object should look something like (bear in mind most of this info is pulled in from the top of the file as defaults):

        const data = {
            'client_name': client.name,
            'password': this.auth.password,
            'notification_key': client.notificationKey || this.auth.notificationKey,
            'client_type': client.type,
            'email': this.auth.email,
            'country': client.country,
            'app_version': client.app,
            'unique_id': this.auth.clientUUID,
            'device_identifier': client.device,
            'os_version': client.os,
        };

And I changed the headers to:

        const headers = {
            'User-Agent': 'Blink/2209271715 CFNetwork/1390 Darwin/22.0.0',
            'APP-BUILD': 'IOS_2209271715',
            'LOCALE': 'en_GB',
            'x-blink-time-zone': 'Europe/London',
            'accept-language': 'en-GB',
            'Accept': '*\/*',
        };

I used my iPhone to rip this, I would recommend using a proxy to sniff out your own device info and swap it out incase Blink is verifying this. Of course, because I had my UUID from the MITM attack I didn't need to 2fa either, which is a good thing because auth was failing and I also wasn't getting an email. Remember to change your locale, you can find values for where you live by googling http header locale for example.

Thanks. I'll look into this later today and push a new version.
