Jean-Pierre MartineauandClaude Opus 5 d3735c8f7b BLE: a connect that fails must put the link back down
MeshCore.create_ble builds its client, calls connect() on it, and hands
it back only on success. A connect that *raises* therefore left that
client — and the bleak link it had already opened — orphaned inside the
library with no reference we could close. Our _mc was never assigned, so
disconnect() was a no-op and the probe's _safe_disconnect closed nothing.

That is not a corner: a PIN-protected companion answers the unbonded
notify-subscribe with a GATT authentication error, and the picker's first
attempt is always PIN-less. So selecting an unbonded companion leaked the
link, Windows held it for the life of the process, and the peripheral —
still believing it had a peer — stopped advertising. The PIN dialog then
asked for a code it could no longer deliver: the retry paired at the OS
level (the bond really is created) but could not form a GATT session, and
the user was told their correct PIN belonged to something that "isn't a
MeshCore companion". Since Unpair & quit is what leaves you unbonded, the
whole thing read as unpairing having changed the PIN.

Assemble the two objects here instead. _connect_owned_ble keeps the
handle, so both failure shapes close it: a raise (closed, then re-raised)
and a None handshake (closed, then reported as "not a companion"). The
teardown is shielded — the other way in is a probe whose wait_for expired
and cancelled the handshake, where a plain await would be cancelled the
moment it suspended and abandon the very close it was called to perform.

The picker's accepted PIN now also rides on the context, so a mid-session
reconnect doesn't re-run the whole "needs a PIN" dance against a companion
we already authenticated to. Session-lifetime only; nothing reaches disk.

Tests stop naming a real companion: the addresses and pairing code are
stand-ins now, and the fakes model the class we construct rather than the
create_ble we no longer call.

"""The interactive main menu, built dynamically from the tool registry.
The menu groups registered tools by category and runs the selected tool's interactive flow

from the registry, adding a tool automatically adds a menu entry with no changes here. The
persistent header shows the connection target and live passive-monitor counters; each tool's
