MarekWo fef6845c03 fix(connection): self-heal degraded long-lived TCP via in-place reconnect
Long-lived TCP against the meshcore-proxy can degrade in a way the socket
can't see: some commands (set_flood_scope_key with all-zero key) start
timing out while RX events and other commands keep working. The 5 s
execute() timeout fires with concurrent.futures.TimeoutError() — whose
str() is empty — so the UI showed "Could not set region scope (none):"
with no error text, and only channels with a mapped region could send
because their non-zero scope_key happened to keep working.

Two recovery paths:

- send_channel_message now detects the timeout case (set_flood_scope_key
  surfaces timed_out=True) and runs force_reconnect() + one retry before
  failing. The user sees a brief delay instead of a cryptic error and
  having to restart the container.

- A new _liveness_watcher_loop task runs on the DM event loop and forces
  a reconnect when no RX event has arrived for HEALTH_STRICT_MAX_RX_STALE_SEC
  (5 min). /health/strict now also reports rx_stale for TCP (previously
  serial/USB only), so an external watchdog could act on it too.

force_reconnect() runs on the DM loop via run_coroutine_threadsafe with
a 20 s cap, a 30 s cooldown to avoid churn under fire, and a
_reconnect_lock to prevent concurrent attempts. mc.disconnect() fires
DISCONNECTED — _intentional_disconnect tells _on_disconnected to skip
its own reconnect loop so the two don't race.
