"""Long-running serial monitor sessions via `pio device monitor`.
Why pio instead of raw pyserial: pio applies the board's monitor_filters —
`esp32_exception_decoder` symbolicates crash stacks, `time` adds timestamps,
etc. Raw pyserial would give us bytes; pio gives us developer-grade logs.
Each session runs `pio device monitor` in a subprocess, with a daemon reader
thread draining stdout into a bounded ring buffer. Callers pull lines via
`serial_read` using a cursor that survives across calls.
