Device Name not passed to Server

[markphillips100]

Describe the bug
Ipad device name is not coming through. App defaults to "iPad" which then causes clashes at server for concurrent ipad playback, especially when it comes to transcoding.

System (please complete the following information):

• iOS Version: iPad OS 18.2
• Jellyfin Expo version: 1.5
• Jellyfin Server version: 10.10.3

To Reproduce
Install app on 2 ipads, signin on both, and check the devices list in Dashboard. Will only see one device.

Expected behavior
Should use the device name so that separate devices are registered at server.

Additional context
This code attempts to get the device name but must be coming back null and so the fallback modelName is being used. Perhaps this is due to a new privilege in ipad OS 18?

Confirmed. iOS 16+ requires an additional entitlement: https://docs.expo.dev/versions/latest/sdk/device/#devicedevicename

@thornbill I realise there is no due date on a 1.6 release but may I ask if there's some ball park date being considered?

I'm hoping for sometime in January if all goes well.

That would be awesome. Thanks for the update
