Update setup/Readme.md to reflect new support for block devices

gotiniens commented 3 years ago

Thanks for improving the docs!

I am thinking whether it would make sense to add a list of "supported devices". Of course it would be hard to guarantee the support, because we don't have automated tests for the specific devices, but it could be helpful for people getting started. Or maybe we could just add our two models behind "block" and "MTP" such that people are able to conclude whether their device might be rather a MTP or a block device. Something like

Workoutizer currently supports devices with MTP (e.g. FR645) and Block (e.g. 920xt) modes.

What do you think?

I think it would be better to have an list of (theoraticlly) supported devices divided into MTP and Block devices. I searched online for an list of which Garmin devices uses which connection type. Unfortunatly I cloud not find such an list. Maybe you know where we can find it?

In case we can not find such an list, we should list devices we know work with workoutizer, as there are 2 at the current moment, just naming them in the sentence is fine with me.

DC Rainmaker has an feature comparison but it does not include MTP/Block. I will add the suggested change.

failing test is unrelated, seems to be flaky
