HyperDeck IPs from Companion, Vista Art-Net heartbeat, quiet Tascam module

- The hold-to-fix deck probe takes each HyperDeck's IP from its Companion connection's "ip" variable, so the config no longer repeats them. - APPS shows "VISTA SILENT" when the Lighting PC's Art-Net poll (every 0.5 s) is not heard for 5 s: a crashed or closed Vista shows in seconds, not the minute macOS takes to drop a network MIDI peer. - tascam-quiet/ builds the Tascam DA-6400 module 1.3.1-quiet: the recorder's "Illegal Status" warning is logged once a minute, not 5 times a second. - README: hold-to-fix table fixed and updated.

+#!/usr/bin/env python3
+"""Build the "quiet" Tascam DA-6400 Companion module (1.3.1-quiet) from the stock 1.3.0.
+
+The stock module polls the recorder every 200 ms. The recorder rejects one of those polls
+with an "F2 Illegal Status" reply, and the module logs a warning for every reply: about
+430,000 warnings a day in Companion's log. This build logs it at most once a minute and
+names the commands that were just sent. Nothing else changes.
+
+On NA Ingest the stock module is in
+  ~/Library/Application Support/companion/modules/tascam-da-6400-1.3.0
+
+  python3 make_quiet_tascam.py <stock module folder> <output folder>
+
+Writes <output folder>/tascam-da-6400-1.3.1-quiet.tgz. Import it in Companion under
+Modules -> Import module package, then pick 1.3.1-quiet on the Tascam connection.
