The plaintext MAC addresses aren't necessary, since we already have hashed machine IDs.

The system info JSON was basically useless and was only logged by domain-server.

There should be a follow-up protocol breaking PR to remove the now empty hardwareAddress and systemInfo fields from the domain server handshake packet when we have the chance.

Looks good, yeah, given the machine fingerprint the MAC is redundant anyway
