Jean-Pierre MartineauandClaude Fable 5.1 c9f5a71ce7 Every Python file names its licence with an SPDX identifier
Apache-2.0 does not require per-file headers, but a file lifted out of the tree carried no marking at all. One comment line, first (or right after a shebang), on every .py under meshterm/, tests/, packaging/ and scripts/, plus the extensionless SPI bridge; tests/test_spdx.py keeps a new file from landing without one.

"""The ``livefeed`` tool: every packet as it arrives, right under the dashboard.
Opens the full-screen live feed (see :mod:`meshterm.ui.livefeed_screen`): the
streaming packet list that used to be the dashboard's bottom panel, promoted to its
own menu entry — newest first, every class, Enter opening any row in the shared
packet viewer. It sits directly under the dashboard because the two split one
question between them: the dashboard summarizes *what's going on out there*, the
feed shows every individual packet behind those numbers.
Menu-only: the feed is inherently live (it rides the event hub and repaints every
second), so there is no scripted one-shot to register — the ``monitor`` subcommand
covers scripted packet-watching.
