Power off camera through visca #173

All of the Visca over IP command lists I can find show an option for powering off the camera (or standby for BirdDog). I noticed the plug-in has an option for powering on the camera, but it would be nice to power it off as well.

I imagine it as a checkbox option in the config to send the power off command to the camera when OBS shuts down. If I'm reading the OBS plug-in api docs correctly there is a function that could be used to handle this.

I'm happy to put together a pr if it's likely to get merged. The use case for me is we have a permanently installed camera that is used once a week and is just left on the rest of the time. It would be nice to save a little power and maybe prolong the life of the camera by being in standby or turned off.

This is so needed for churches and similar situations, if only the camera supports the command though :)
The RBLink ePTZ camera we use is on 24/7 in our church because it doesn't seem to support it and Ubiquit UDM-SE doesn't support POE off/on commands. :(

Another way could be custom VISCA Command buttons #169

I had to modify the plugin to add a button for turning on/off Auto tracking.

But I have the Power off right click option on my side (after clicking on Power ON who don't know the real state of the camera).
