Ben MeadorsandGitHub 6c7ee8afc7 Add MemAudit: per-subsystem heap accounting in the boot log (#10900)
* Add MemAudit: per-subsystem heap accounting in the boot log

The 2.8.0 nRF52840 heap-exhaustion field reports had to be diagnosed by
hand, reconstructing each subsystem's heap footprint from source and
build flags one report at a time. This makes every future report
self-diagnosing from the serial log: a tiny fixed-size registry
(src/memory/MemAudit.*) that big long-lived allocations report into,
printed as one line at the end of setup() and alongside the periodic
"Heap free:" log:

  MemAudit[boot]: tmm=2500 warm=4000 pkthist=5824 nodedb=13440
  msgstore=2200 pktpool(live)=3270 total=31234

Instrumented: NodeDB hot vector (nodedb) + satellite maps (satmaps,
rb-tree overhead estimated), WarmNodeStore (warm), PacketHistory records
and hash index (pkthist), TrafficManagement caches (tmm/tmm_ni),
MessageStore text pool (msgstore), TFT line/repaint buffers (display),
and live in-flight packets (pktpool(live)) via an optional audit tag on
the packet pool allocator - the one hot path, counted with a relaxed
32-bit atomic add (single instructions on Cortex-M, no locks).

Cost: 128 B RAM for the 16-tag table, well under 1 KB flash on rak4631.
MESHTASTIC_MEM_AUDIT=0 compiles it out to inline no-op stubs (call
sites need no ifdefs); STM32WL, the tightest flash target, defaults off.

New native suite test_mem_audit covers add/set/snapshot arithmetic, tag
reuse (pointer and cross-TU strcmp fallback), null/unknown tags, and
table-full behavior; test/native-suite-count bumped to 28.

* native-wasm: add src/memory/ to the curated source filter

The wasm env denies all sources and adds an explicit file list; MemAudit
callers (main, MeshService, NodeDB, PacketHistory) are in that list but
src/memory/MemAudit.cpp was not, so wasm-ld failed on undefined
memaudit:: symbols.

// MemAudit: tiny per-subsystem heap accounting registry.
//
// Subsystems that own a large long-lived allocation report it here under a short
// tag ("nodedb", "pkthist", ...). logBreakdown() then prints one line, e.g.
// MemAudit[boot]: tmm=2500 warm=4000 pkthist=5824 nodedb=13440 total=25764
// so heap regressions in field reports self-diagnose from the serial log instead
// of needing a hand-built breakdown for every release.
//
// Tags must be string LITERALS (or otherwise immortal strings): the registry
// stores the pointer, compares by pointer first and falls back to strcmp for
// the same text duplicated across translation units.
//
// Concurrency: counters are 32-bit std::atomic accessed with relaxed ordering -
// on ARM Cortex-M aligned 32-bit loads/stores are single instructions and the
// update sites are low-rate, so add() stays a few instructions with no locks
// (the one hot path is the per-packet pool add). Registration claims a table
// slot with a compare-exchange, so first-use racing is safe too. Counts are
// best-effort diagnostics, not exact bookkeeping.
//
// Compiled out (no-op inline stubs, so call sites need no #ifdefs) when
// MESHTASTIC_MEM_AUDIT is 0 - the default on STM32WL, the tightest flash target.
