Feature Request: Submit Unique Identifier to Nightscout #1468

Description

@scrappy

Only if Nightscout is enabled, obviously, but when uploadStatistics is run, could a tiny record be sent to Nightscout that just contained a record like:

{
report: id_backup
unique_id: <32 byte string>
}

such that someone could go to their nightscout and run /api/v1/devicestatus.json?count=1&find[report]=id_backup to see their last id ... instead of having to remember to write it down, it would be automatically saved off the device and easy for them to recover?

it doesn't help anyone without a nightscout backend, but it could be helpful for those that do ... ?

it would need to be updated periodically, which is why I'm thinking via uploadStatistics ... if you only do it once, then its useless as when the older records expire, so too would that one record ...

Just a thought
