📄 Description

Currently the only thing added is a line in the log indicating what fork someone is using (or if it's main), but it can be expanded to add more features.
This will make handling complaints from people not using official builds easier, although most people currently use either @diegolix29's builds or main, and the former is easily detected even without this PR.
Tested on local builds across different remotes (with this PR merged on them), and one Github actions from my fork.
