I have updated kobofirmware with the latest mark7 Kobo Aura Edition 2 v2 and Kobo Aura H2O Edition 2 v2 devices.

The trickiest part was that the update zip url for those devices do not include the whole version (4.8 instead of 4.8.10956) (I hope this is temporary because my page depends on it), so I had to make an override for their update url. If this is not temporary, it will take me quite a bit of work to extract the latest version for the devices.

So far, all of the newer affiliates get the updates for the new devices, with the exception of rakutenbooks (which is out of date for everything but the Kobo Mini).

I used 00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000379 for the Aura ed2 v2 and 00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000378 for the Aura h2o ed2 v2. Please let me know if I was wrong.
