I've gotten this PR to work on macOS & Windows, however on Arch Linux I'm getting a permission denied error. If someone else on Linux is able to test and see if they get the same error I would appreciate it, because I'm not certain if it's something to do with my machine or not

I don't have a linux device with me but just curious. Where was the linux tested on? Is it on an actual device or in a virtual machine? |
after doing some googling it seems like this is just a linux thing & you have to add yourself to a certain usergroup to not need sudo when connecting to serial, so ill just go ahead with this & update the readme |
it was tested on an actual device, I have a laptop with windows and linux dualboot set up |

This PR makes the search for the ProvesKit serial port work on all platforms by searching for the VID and PID. I also made the connection/disconnection to the serial port happen automatically without needing to refresh, since needing to manually select a device isn't necessary anymore.
