SteamOS Manager for BIOS updates, TDP and GPU clock controls now open source

SteamOS Manager is supposed to be a standardized way for Linux distros to interact with the Steam Deck's hardware features. Should help with other distros supporting the Deck's hardware.

It also mentions a "download mode", which is a low powered mode for downloads. It's not clear if this is a work in progress feature or something that's already on the deck, but it definitely sounds like something that users have been requesting a long time.
