tool: upgrade to hidapi 2.x? #419

Hi. I attempted to package system76_ectool for Debian but ran into a dependency problem: it requires hidapi 1.x and debian has 2.x. While we could package hidapi 1.x for Debian too, I'm opening this issue to request that the tool is upgraded to hidapi 2.x. Is that possible? The comment in Cargo.toml about hidapi 2.x not being packaged doesn't seem true any more.

hidapi 2.x requires libhidapi 0.13.
