Adds a line to publish an MQQT topic identifying the common name of the species found (credit to alfista2600)

I recently starting playing with this branch and it's pretty cool to get MQTT messages when the bird species is identified. That being said, I forked your branch and made a few modifications which made it even better. I basically used a JSON payload instead of just the string for the common name which gives me a lot more info when listening to updates. This is what the code ended up looking like. Also, I'm not a python developer so I'm sure this is rough, but it works for me.

mqtt_payload = "{\"id\": \"" + frigate_event + "\", \"camera\": \"" + after_data['camera'] + "\", \"common_name\": \"" + get_common_name(display_name) + "\"}"
client.publish( 'whosatmyfeeder/detections', mqtt_payload, qos=0, retain=False)
cursor = conn.cursor()

I created an MQTT entity in Home Assistant that captures the data, then set up an automation to send me a push notification with the name of the bird, along with a photo and the name of the camera that caught it. You could create an automation to directly listen to the MQTT topic, but I found that I got a lot of repeats and only wanted to know when there was a new bird (which is handled with the to_state and from_state of the entity state change).

I've got these changes posted at https://github.com/wilkinnh/WhosAtMyFeeder/tree/patch-1 is anyone wants to try it out.
