Add UDP discovery to the macOS app for bidirectional discovery #8

@vanlooverenkoen

Description

@vanlooverenkoen

Currently only the SDK does discovery. Adding UDP discovery to the macOS app would allow both sides to find each other.

Current behaviour

Discovery only works one-way: the macOS app broadcasts via UDP and the SDK listens. The SDK must constantly scan the network.

Expected behaviour

Add UDP discovery to the macOS app as well, so the SDK can announce itself and the macOS app can discover running apps. This gives the best of both worlds: the webserver stays on the SDK side, and the macOS app can also initiate discovery — especially useful at startup.
