Adds a hardware identification section and flashing warning raised in fossasia#85. Clarifies that this firmware targets the CH582M with 11x44 LEDs specifically and warns that flashing unsupported look-alike badges bricks them permanently with no recovery path (OEM firmware is read-protected). References fossasia#59 as a real example. Intentionally omits clone board compatibility claims as pinouts are still TBD in CH582.md.

Closes #85
What this does
Adds a "Supported Hardware" section to the README to address the confusion raised in #85 — users arriving from similar looking LED badge products (LeSun, generic Alibaba clones) have no way to know if this firmware applies to their hardware.
What's included
Flashed a CH582M badge with 11x55 instead of 11x44 LED's and now its bricked - no OEM-backup available #59
What's intentionally left out
I did not add compatibility claims for specific clone boards (LeSun B1144, etc) because CH582.md marks pinout reverse engineering as TBD and I didn't want to document something unverified.
Happy to expand this once that's clarified — asked about it in #85.
