Update AstroMC, FocusMax

Updated AstroMC/B6 from 2.3.1 to 2.4.1/B8. I am hoping this will eliminate the recent spate of ACP disconnects because “dome is already slewing”. This began when I installed the replacement dome controller, which is the new format in the gray box. We’ll see.

Also updated FocusMax to 4.1.0.25. When I ran the new version it attached to Maxim (already running) and immediately clobbered the STF8300 USB port. Maxim did not see them in the camera list.

Tried repowering 8300, reseating USB cable, no luck. Finally rebooted Thor, and everything seems to work again.
