Update check in 2.1.0 does not notify of new oficial update like 2.2.0 #302

Hi, I noticed that the update check fails in 2.1.0.

The UI shows this but there is a new release 2.2.0

I have MacOs Big Sur 11.1 on iMac 27'' (Late 2013)

Thanks for this great firewall.

Built-in updaters are usually unreliable.

Yes, same here for Lulu 2.0.0 on one of my Mac. (MacBook Pro 13' 2015, Intel)

MacOS 11.2, MacBook Pro (13-inch, 2020 Intel) Same issue, manually pressing "Check Now" returns "Installed version 2.1.0 is the latest".

Same problem with the 2.3.0 update

The update process uses a JSON file that is defined as a constant https://github.com/objective-see/LuLu/blob/45e0434e511c80b3710e52867f75567aa6e7f54e/LuLu/Shared/consts.h#L77

There is already a pull request that tries to mitigate this by using git tags however best would be to fix the release process and generate the file properly on release, the code for the website/release update scripts don't seem to be open source, so only @objective-see can fix it at this stage I reckon.
