Each test docstring states the behaviour that the test proves, in the
simple present. No assertion message, test id, or other string literal
changed. Four statements now agree with the code: the Trace highlight
stays on the last row, a menu count, and two others.

Naming the AIO rested on the uConsole's panel alone. It now takes every
mark, from two independent sources: ClockworkPi's uConsole overlay
describing the hardware in the device tree -- the cwu50 screen, the
AXP228 power chip, the OCP8178 backlight -- and the hardware answering
for itself on USB, the built-in keyboard (1eaf:0024, made by
ClockworkPI, named uConsole; the ids alone are any LeafLabs Maple). An
overlay on the wrong machine has no uConsole keyboard, and the keyboard
on another machine has no uConsole overlay. Any one missing, and the
radio is listed unnamed on the AIO's wiring, as before.
`BuiltinRadio.compatible` gives way to `board`, a test only its machine
passes (`is_uconsole`).

The radio on spidev1.0 was listed as a bare "SPI radio" and reported
"MeshTerm SPI node", because spidev1.0 alone could be any Pi. A
uConsole now proves itself by its own screen: ClockworkPi's uConsole
overlay declares the panel `cw,cwu50`, which no other machine carries
(the DevTerm's is cw,cwd686; the CM's model string and the AXP228 and
backlight are shared). Seen on JP's CM5 uConsole.
`BuiltinRadio` takes a device-tree `compatible` beside its marker path,
read once a run from /sys/firmware/devicetree/base. The named AIO comes
first in BUILTIN_RADIOS; without the panel, the unnamed entry still
lists spidev1.0 on the AIO's wiring as before.

The SPI node reported every radio as "MeshTerm SPI node", so the
Cardputer's Cap read that way wherever a device's model is shown. The
node is now told the shipped board it runs on (`board_name`, matched by
the SPI node on this machine's board, so a profile that adjusts the
Cap's pins is still the Cap) and reports that; a radio on a board
MeshTerm doesn't know by name keeps "MeshTerm SPI node".

The Cardputer Zero's Cap carries a GPS on the header's UART, which the
device screen listed as "~ n/a" (pyserial's name for a port with no USB
identity): a companion to connect to, and with nothing remembered, the
lone port a command-line connect would pick. A wiring now names its
board's GPS (`gps_port`, `gps_baud`; the Cap's is /dev/serial0 at
115200), and wherever that radio is listed, its GPS port is not: the
device screen, `meshterm devices`, and autodetect.
The radio node reads it the way MeshCore companion firmware reads a
board's GPS: `gps` (off until switched on, remembered in prefs.json)
and `gps_interval` (0, every fix, once a second), reported and set as
custom variables, which is where Device config already shows them. A
valid RMC or GGA fix becomes the node's position, the one its
self-info reports and, with Share location on, its adverts carry. The
last fix is saved as the node shuts down. Standard library only, as
the node's contract asks; NMEA checksums are checked.
On MeshTerm's side, our own self-info is now refreshed behind the
answer after a minute, like the contacts, so screens opened after the
node moves show where it is; and the connect-time settings offer no
longer flags a position the running GPS moved.
Checked on the Cardputer: the ttyS0 row is gone from `meshterm
devices`; `config custom gps 1` opens the port, is saved, and reads
back on; the real-terminal test passes there.

On a Cardputer Zero the device screen lists the Cap as "Cap LoRa-1262",
and --spi reaches it, with no profile: its wiring ships beside the
AIO's, listed when the board's own ext_5v_out switch says this is a
Cardputer Zero (spidev0.1 alone would claim every Pi with SPI on).
The Cap needs two things before the chip answers, and the wiring can
now say both. `leds` sets the switches the device tree hands to
gpio-leds — ext_5v_out powers the header, ext_usb_gpio_fun=0 keeps
the reset and interrupt pins on GPIO rather than USB — and puts them
back when the node ends, so the header is unpowered again after
MeshTerm quits. `pi4io_*` drives the Cap's PI4IOE5V6408 at 0x43, which
enables the RF path; a silent expander is reported as the Cap not
being attached.
Checked on the hardware: reset 26, busy 22, irq 23 on spidev0.1 (the
lines M5's factory test drives), the node comes up from a cold
header, and it hears the mesh at +12 dB.

The AIO's pins sit on whichever /dev/gpiochip carries the Raspberry Pi's
40-pin header, and that number is no fact about the board: chip 0 on a
uConsole's CM4, chip 4 on a CM5 under its early kernels, chip 0 once
Raspberry Pi aliased the RP1 there, and another number again on some
later kernels. gpio_chip now defaults to -1, which asks each chip for its
label and takes the one called pinctrl-rp1, pinctrl-bcm2711 or
pinctrl-bcm2835, falling back to chip 0 where none is; a number in the
profile still pins it. The chip is settled once before the node starts,
so the node, every error and the lsof hint all name the same one.
The uConsole guide says CM4 and CM5 both work, that ClockworkPi's own
A-04, A-06 and R-01 cores are not supported, and explains which chip and
why; config.example.toml and the configuration guide say the same, and
the guide's test record now names the CM5 it has run on since 09-24.

--spi used to take whichever SPI profile config.toml listed first, a
coin toss that transmits once two radios are configured. It now counts
the radios actually attached: exactly one is used whether or not a
profile names it, which keeps the common single-radio case to a bare
--spi. Two attached, or two SPI profiles with nothing attached to count,
is a selection error (exit 3) that lists them and asks for -p, the same
way several serial devices with no default already are.

The device screen listed an SPI radio but the CLI inventory didn't, so
the one command for "what is attached?" was silent about it. The listing
moves into spiradio.spi_radios, which both now use, so the two can never
disagree; the row is marked active under --spi or an SPI profile.
resolve_spi becomes public for that.

MeshCore transmits a 32-symbol preamble up to SF8 (16 above), but the
node and the bridge configured the SX1262 for the library's fixed 12.
The chip waits for the sync word only about as long as the preamble it
expects, so it locked onto each packet, gave up, and locked on again
further along the same preamble - decoding a packet only when it
happened to catch the tail. On the uConsole that meant 0 of 5 detected
packets decoded after a send; with 32 symbols, 4 of 4.
The node now derives the preamble from the spreading factor as MeshCore
does, and re-sends it to the listening chip when Device config changes
the SF. preamble_length leaves the SPI wiring table (it was protocol,
never wiring) and is retired; the bridge defaults to the same rule.

A LoRa chip on the host's own SPI bus (the uConsole AIO) is now a
transport like serial, BLE, and TCP: --spi, an SPI profile, or the
picker's row for /dev/spidev1.0. MeshTerm starts a software node as a
child process under whichever Python has openhop-core, talks to it over
a loopback port, and ends it on disconnect; the node also exits with its
parent, so the pins are free whenever MeshTerm is not running.
The node keeps identity, prefs, channels, and contacts under
~/.meshterm/radio/<spidev>/, and on first use copies the bridge's
identity, contacts, and radio settings so it stays the same node.
Board wiring lives in a profile's spi table; radio settings are the
node's own, edited on Device config. Closes#21.
