feat(channels): add hashtag and private channel management dialog

WHAT: New + Add Channel button in the Messages submenu opens a dialog
supporting three modes — Hashtag (key derived from name), Private New
(random key + QR export), Private Existing (paste hex key).

WHY: Channels could only be added via firmware/external tools. The new
dialog covers all user scenarios without changing the BLE worker or
existing panels.

NOTES: Requires `qrcode[pil]` for QR rendering (graceful degradation if
absent). Channel re-discovery is triggered automatically on success.

## [1.16.0] - 2026-04-04
### ADDED
- **Add Channel dialog** (`gui/panels/channel_panel.py`): new `ChannelPanel` class
that renders a `ui.dialog` with three modes — Hashtag, Private New, and
Private Existing — accessible via a ` Add Channel` button at the bottom of
the Messages submenu.
- **ChannelService** (`services/channel_service.py`): pure-Python business logic
for channel key management. Provides `generate_secret()`, `derive_hashtag_key()`,
`build_qr_url()` and `generate_qr_base64()`. No GUI or BLE dependencies.
- **`_cmd_add_channel`** (`ble/commands.py`): new BLE command handler that calls
`mc.commands.set_channel(idx, name, secret)` and triggers a full channel
re-discovery on success so the GUI immediately reflects the new channel.
- **` Add Channel` submenu button** (`gui/dashboard.py`): added to the Messages
submenu — present on initial render and preserved through all dynamic rebuilds.
- **QR code sharing**: after adding a new private channel the dialog shows a
scannable QR code (`meshcore://channel/add?name=…&secret=…`) and a
copy-to-clipboard button for the hex key.
### CHANGED
- `gui/panels/__init__.py`: `ChannelPanel` added to re-exports.
- `gui/dashboard.py`: `ChannelPanel` imported, instantiated in `render()`,
updated in `_update_ui()` and opened from the ` Add Channel` submenu button.
- `ble/commands.py`: `add_channel` registered in the handler dict.
### RATIONALE
- Channels could previously only be added by flashing or using a separate tool.
The dialog covers all three user scenarios (hashtag join, private create, private
join) without requiring any changes to the BLE worker's discovery logic.
### IMPACT
- No existing command handlers modified. No existing panel logic altered.
Pure addition — all existing functionality unaffected.

If you want to cache the discovered channel list to disk (for faster startup), set `CHANNEL_CACHE_ENABLED = True` in `meshcore_gui/config.py`. By default, channels are always fetched fresh from the device.

> **Note:** The maximum number of channel slots probed can be adjusted via `MAX_CHANNELS` in `config.py` (default: 100).
#### Adding channels from the GUI
Open the **Messages** section in the left drawer and click ** Add Channel** at the bottom of the channel list. A dialog appears with three modes:
| Mode | When to use | Key input |
|---|---|---|
| **# Hashtag** | Join a public topic channel (e.g. `#localmesh`) | None — key is derived from the name |
| **🔒 Private New** | Create a new private group channel | Click *Generate key*, then share the QR or hex key |
| **🔒 Private Existing** | Join a private channel someone shared with you | Paste the 32-char hex key |
After clicking **Add Channel**, the device is updated and channel discovery re-runs automatically. A new private channel shows a scannable QR code (`meshcore://channel/add?name=…&secret=…`) that the official MeshCore app can read directly.

"""
Channel panel dialog for adding hashtag and private channels.
Triggered by the `` Add Channel`` button in the Messages submenu.
Three modes are supported:
Hashtag
Name must start with ``#``. The channel key is derived automatically
from the name by the MeshCore library; no manual key input is required
and no key export is offered (the name itself is the shared secret).
Private New
Name is freely chosen. A random 16-byte key is generated on demand.
After submission the dialog shows a QR code and a copy-to-clipboard
button so the key can be shared with other users.
Private Existing (join)
Used when another user has shared a private channel key. The user
pastes the 32-character hex key and the dialog writes it to the
device verbatim. No key export is offered.
