v1.6.0 to optimize code, etc.

### Release v1.6.0

1. Optimize code by passing by `reference` instead of `value`
2. Optional `Board_Name` in Config Portal. Check [option to remove board name from web page #25](khoih-prog/WiFiManager_NINA_Lite#25)
3. Add optional `CONFIG_MODE_LED` to be `ON` when in Config Portal mode. Check [Knowing when configuration mode is on or off #26](khoih-prog/WiFiManager_NINA_Lite#26)
4. Add function `isConfigMode()` to signal system is in Config Portal mode.
5. Update `Packages' Patches`
