Log what type of viewer (Electron/Web/Extension) content is being displayed on. #51

It would be useful to know what type of viewers are being used on a screen. We could use the information to more intelligently inform users when some content they've assigned may not be viewable on the screens.

It's been suggested by @JakeChampion that instead of attempting to infer the viewer from properties, each different viewer type should announce what it is explicitely. Thoughts? I can't see any reason not too (and default to assuming it's a browser-based viewer if the declaration is ommitted).

Agree with this. Be good to have an icon on the admin screen to indicate what type of viewer each one is.
