Bartender 4 Support

Bartender 4 and macOS Sonoma Beta

I am aware of the deprecated API warning macOS Sonoma is showing for Bartender, and do not need informing as the messages recommends.

The API this refers to was just deprecated in macOS Sonoma, and a the replacement Apple recommend does not yet have the features needed by Bartender 4, so I cannot yet update Bartender 4 to this.

You will also notice a new menu bar item in macOS Sonoma, informing you that Bartender is capturing your screen whenever it gets a image of your menu bar items, again this is new in Sonoma, and currently unavoidable, for the same API issue. I am working on Bartender 5 right now that will have the ability to avoid this happening.
