Measure power draw against benchmark #63

In considering incorporation of Orcasound software in audio data acquisition systems that do not have access to shore power, measurements of the power demand of Orcasound hardware solutions would be valuable. Based on on-going benchmark studies like this one on PID Ramble, Raspberry Pi zeros can draw as little as 0.5W while a Raspberry Pi 4 with all 4 processors at work can draw a bit more than 5W.
