New release: 1.2.10

This should have been released way faster after 1.2.9, since it fixes two bugs introduced by this release, but a nasty flu that's making the rounds in Germany got in the way of this. While this time we have mostly fixes of bugs and little annoyances, at least a hand full of minor improvements also made it into this release:

* The performance of the console output during plugin installation and deinstallation was improved.
* Some performance improvements in the communication layer were done.
* The "firmware error" message introduced in the last release was reworded to make it more obvious that a general communication error occured.
* OctoPrint now allows management of .mp4 timelapse files, which is of interest to people who've taken to using a wrapper script to generate those instead of .mpg files. See the release notes for details on this.
* A bunch of less commonly used configuration options in the Serial settings got their own "Advanced options" section.

Since most changes this time happened under the hood, no screen shots, sorry ;)
