Feat/mesh beacon (#10618)

* Tips robot virtual node / relayer to different LoRa modes & channels

Note that this commit has details hardcoded for the Wellington (NZ)
mesh, and also requires the following patch to the protobufs:

* fix: repair mesh tips CI build

* feat: add MeshBeacon module (Phase 1 — proto + generated code + initial stub)

* feat(beacon): implement broadcaster + listener (phases 2-5)

* feat(beacon): wire RadioLibInterface hooks + admin validation (phases 6-7)

* fix(beacon): fix LocalModuleConfig flat access (no payload_variant), add localonly proto field

* feat(beacon): fix broadcaster inheritance, add preset/region validation + proto cache

- MeshBeaconBroadcastModule now inherits ProtobufModule<meshtastic_MeshBeacon>
  (alongside private MeshBeaconModule + OSThread), giving it allocDataPacket()
  and setStartDelay() without extra includes.

- Payload cache: rebuildCache() encodes the MeshBeacon protobuf once and stores
  it in payloadCache[]/payloadCacheSize; sendBeacon() only calls rebuildCache()
  when payloadCacheDirty==true. AdminModule calls invalidateCache() after saving
  new config so the next broadcast picks up changes.

- Region/preset validation in handleSetModuleConfig (mesh_beacon_tag):
  broadcast_on_preset is validated against the device's current region via
  RadioInterface::validateConfigLora(); broadcast_offer_region is validated via
  RadioInterface::validateConfigRegion(). Invalid values are zeroed with a
  LOG_WARN before saving.

* feat(beacon): add unit tests for MeshBeaconModule and AdminModule configuration validation

* remove old meshtips

* more  validation in NodeDB and AdminModule, and userprefs for baked in goodness

* copilot is my gravity

* mmmmm... beacon

* oops

* Enhance unit tests for MeshBeaconModule with detailed validation checks and output formatting

* new lines. Why not?

* finally

* legacy mode activate!

* Update protobufs (#17)

* better logic, fixed a test

* updated for packet signing
fixed a test
added guards for licensed/ham mode

* channel numbers

* beacon: encrypt on the beacon channel PSK; fix split note

When broadcast_on_channel overrides the primary channel's name/PSK, the
beacon was encrypted with the PRIMARY PSK: perhapsEncode keys encryption
off the primary slot, but the radio-thread channel switch happens only
after encryption. sendBeaconPacket() now installs the beacon channel into
the primary slot for the synchronous duration of send() (cooperative
threading => no interleaving) so encryption/hash use the beacon channel,
then restores it. A shared beaconChannelSettings() helper builds the
channel for both the encrypt-time swap and the RF-time swap so the
key+hash cannot drift.

Also: correct the legacy-split comments (both packets go out on the same
beacon radio settings, not the normal config) and merge the two
consecutive `if (hasText)` blocks in the listener (cppcheck
duplicateCondition).

Tests: add channelPskOverride_swapsBeaconChannelAndRestores and
noChannelOverride_doesNotSwapPrimary; MockRouter snapshots the primary
channel at send() time.

* test/beacon: drain toPhoneQueue in tearDown to fix LSan leak abort

The listener delivers received text via MeshService::sendToPhone(), which
enqueues the packet into toPhoneQueue and takes ownership. Nothing dequeues
it in tests, so the three listener tests carrying message text stranded a
MeshPacket each — 1272 bytes / 3 allocations that LeakSanitizer flagged at
process exit, aborting the coverage run (surfaced by pio as [ERRORED] /
SIGHUP even though all 40 assertions passed).

Drain the phone queue in tearDown (getForPhone()/releaseToPool) so the
packets return to packetPool. Suite is now GREEN with no sanitizer abort.

* legacy hop override for zero-hoppers

* ever more beacons

* beacon: comment out broadcast_send_as_node pending further review

Functionality preserved in comments with full signing/has_bitfield notes
for when it is re-enabled. Proto tag 3 retained on the wire.

* test/beacon: fix fromIsCustomNodeWhenSet now that send-as-node is disabled

broadcast_send_as_node is commented out; from is always the local node.
Update the test assertion and doc comment to match current behaviour.

* flags for beacons

* beacon: do more with less — slot-index targets + validation

Multi-target beacons embedded a full ChannelSettings in every BroadcastTarget,
blowing ModuleConfig past the 512-byte BLE FromRadio budget so the firmware would
not compile. Targets now reference an existing channel-table slot by channel_index
and the broadcaster resolves it via channels.getByIndex() at TX time. Net effect:
the same multi-target capability for a fraction of the bytes —
FromRadio 609 -> 510 B, MeshBeaconConfig 596 -> 324 B, AdminMessage 615 -> 511 B.

- proto: BroadcastTarget.channel (embedded) -> channel_index (uint32 ref); regen all
  generated headers (size constants propagate to admin/localonly/deviceonly/mesh).
- broadcaster: resolve channel_index from the channel table; an out-of-range or blank
  slot falls back to the default channel for the target preset rather than borrowing
  the primary's name/PSK.
- AdminModule: validate broadcast_targets entries on write (region/preset sanitised
  like the single-target fields; channel_index range-checked).
- userPrefs: TARGET_<n>_CHANNEL_{NAME,NUM,PSK} collapse to a single CHANNEL_INDEX.
- docs: two-step (set_channel -> set_module_config) multi-target setup, inline-vs-
  reference distinction, and single-/multi-target are equal (not "legacy") options.
- tests: target validation + channel-index resolution incl. blank-slot fallback
  (47/47 green on `./bin/run-tests.sh -e native -f test_mesh_beacon`).

* throttling after reboot

* address copilot review

* simplify

* fix(beacon): use 0x%08x for node/packet IDs in logs; register test suite

The %#08lx log specifiers passed uint32_t (NodeNum/PacketId) to a %lx
length modifier — undefined behaviour on 64-bit (native test) targets and
non-standard width. Switch to the project-standard 0x%08x. Also bump
test/native-suite-count to 25 for the added test_mesh_beacon suite.

clod helped too

* copilot & clarity
clod helped too

* refactor(beacon): use auto for the sanitized config copy

clod helped too

* fix(beacon): guard empty-payload sends; gate has_mesh_beacon on build flag; document ISR_TX pre-switch

clod helped too
