ALVR v12.4.1-server

New since v12.4.0:

• ALVR now always uses FoV values reported by the client (should fix cross-eyed image on Oculus Quest 2)
• Fixed an UI crash when there is no output audio device which was causing ALVR UI to appear blank.

Compatibility notice: since now FoV is controlled by the client, the eyeFov settings cannot be used anymore. This means that the fix for some games like DCS World cannot be applied anymore. This issue will be addressed in a future update.

The latest client version is still v12.0.0.
