The TX delay factors changed from absolute seconds to firmware-matching
airtime multipliers (random delay in [0, 5 * airtime * factor], per
MeshCore getRetransmitDelay), but deployed configs tuned under the old
seconds interpretation get no signal on upgrade. Log the interpretation
and both factors at startup, and fix the stale wording in
config.yaml.example and the web API docstring. Defaults are unchanged
(flood 1.0, direct 0.5; firmware ships 0.5/0.3).
Match MeshCore's forwardMultipartDirect: a multipart packet is never
relayed as an ordinary directed packet. At an intermediate direct hop a
multipart ACK is re-emitted as a plain DIRECT ACK with the wrapper byte
stripped and this node removed from the path, deduped on the regenerated
ACK form and spaced by (remaining + 1) * 300ms. Flood routing, final
hops, and non-ACK embedded types are dropped rather than forwarded.
Coverage includes literal firmware-format wire vectors for one- and
two-byte hash widths and transport-direct input, end-to-end receive-to-
transmit relaying, and the drop cases.
The merged RepeaterHandler treats a falsy tx_success as failure; update
the duty-cycle deferral test to return True instead of None.

- Updated byte representations in tests to use lowercase hex format for consistency.
- Reformatted code for better readability, including line breaks and indentation adjustments.
- Consolidated multiple lines into single lines where appropriate to enhance clarity.
- Ensured that all test cases maintain consistent formatting and style across the test suite.
- Introduced tests for TraceHelper and DiscoveryHelper to validate packet forwarding and discovery request handling.
- Implemented tests for LoginHelper to ensure identity registration and login packet processing.
- Added tests for IdentityManager to cover identity registration, lookup, and filtering.
- Created tests for MeshCLI to verify command handling, configuration setting, and error paths.
- Updated the __call__ method to return a boolean indicating transmission success.
- Adjusted handling of transmission failures to increment dropped_count appropriately.
- Enhanced logging for transmission failures in PacketRouter to ensure visibility of issues.
- Added tests to verify correct behavior during transmission exceptions and failures.
- Updated record_packet_only method to skip logging for TRACE packets, as TraceHelper manages trace paths.
- Enhanced documentation to clarify the handling of TRACE packets in the web UI.
- Added tests to ensure TRACE packets are not recorded, maintaining data integrity.
- Modify TX modes: forward, monitor, and add no_tx, allowing for flexible packet handling.
- Updated configuration and API endpoints to support the new modes.
- Adjusted logic in RepeaterHandler to manage packet processing based on the selected mode.
- Enhanced CLI commands to reflect the new mode settings.
- Added tests for each TX mode to ensure correct behavior.
- Functionality of Packet.apply_path_hash_mode and get_path_hashes
- Engine flood_forward and direct_forward with real multi-byte encoded packets
- PacketBuilder.create_trace payload structure and TraceHandler parsing
- Enforcement of max-hop boundaries per hash size
- Removed redundant original_path assignment in `RepeaterHandler` to streamline packet processing.
- Introduced `_is_direct_final_hop` helper method in `PacketRouter` to determine if a packet is the final destination for direct routes with an empty path.
- Updated comments in `PacketRouter` to clarify the handling of packets during routing, especially for direct forwarding scenarios.
- Adjusted logic to ensure packets are correctly processed or delivered based on their routing status, enhancing overall packet management.
- Removed redundant call to mark_seen() for duplicate packets.
- Added validation to ensure hop count does not exceed the maximum limit before appending to the packet path.
- Updated logic to check for path size constraints when appending hash bytes, improving packet processing efficiency.
