support for UT161E

[okvittem]

Added a extensible list of USB vendor and product ids for UT161E : "meters".
See fork at https://github.com/okvittem/unit_ut61eplus.git
Please feel free to pull back.
UT61E and UT161E seem to be very alike so no other changes made.
Works like a charm - thanks for your code @ljakob .

how did you get it running on a UT161E? I ran "ut61eplus.py" but just returns the following:

"DEBUG:ut61eplus.ut61eplus:trying UT61Eplus
DEBUG:ut61eplus.ut61eplus:trying UT161E
DEBUG:ut61eplus.ut61eplus:found UT161E
DEBUG:ut61eplus.ut61eplus:feature requests sent"

it gets stuck in the line "log.info('name=%s', dmm.getName())".

I've noticed that if I run the "DMM.exe" (the software included by the manufacturer) while the Python code runs, everything is fine. Is there some kind of enable command that we need to send?

@SimonGulix did you manage to find a solution for this? The same thing is happening to me with a UT161D on Windows 11.
