- Adjusted method signatures for consistency and clarity across the ConfigManager class.
- Modified device_version in frame_server.py to use FIRMWARE_VER_CODE from pyMC_core for better version management.
- Enhanced login.py and protocol_request.py with additional payload type handling and logging improvements.
- Cleaned up auth_endpoints.py for better readability and consistency in response formatting.
- Updated the noise floor retrieval method to run in an executor, preventing blocking of the event loop during the KISS modem's command execution.
- This change enhances responsiveness by allowing the process to handle other tasks while waiting for the noise floor measurement.
- Improved local transmission handling by deferring local TX when duty cycle limits are exceeded, instead of dropping packets.
- Added LBT metadata extraction and logging for better monitoring of transmission attempts and delays.
- Refactored `schedule_retransmit` to support retrying local transmissions on failure, enhancing reliability.
- Introduced a lock in PacketRouter to serialize local TX operations, preventing race conditions during packet processing.
- Introduced CompanionAPIEndpoints to handle routes under /api/companion/*.
- Enhanced the APIEndpoints class to create a nested companion object for improved modularity and organization of companion-related API functionality.
- Improved the `_build_advert_push_frames` function to handle optional fields and ensure thread safety.
- Enhanced the `on_advert_received` method to robustly process incoming contact data, including better handling of public keys and optional fields for advert details.
- Added error handling to log exceptions during advert processing, improving reliability.
- Introduced a new method `_build_advert_push_frames` to construct short and full advert frames from provided data.
- Refactored the handling of contact data to build and send advert frames asynchronously, improving performance and thread safety.
- Enhanced data structure for advert frame construction, including optional fields for full advert details.
- Changed `_persist_companion_message` to an asynchronous method to prevent blocking the event loop during SQLite operations.
- Updated calls to `_persist_companion_message` in message handling functions to use `await`.
- Enhanced error handling to include `BrokenPipeError` alongside `ConnectionResetError` for improved robustness.
- Updated `_persist_companion_message` to clarify deduplication of messages in SQLite.
- Modified `on_message_received` and `on_channel_message_received` to include `packet_hash` for message identification.
- Enhanced `SQLiteHandler` to support deduplication by `packet_hash` when pushing messages, preventing duplicates in the database.
- Added `packet_hash` column to the `companion_messages` table and created an index for efficient lookups.
- Added a new method `deliver_control_data` in `RepeaterDaemon` to push CONTROL payloads to companion clients.
- Updated `PacketRouter` to invoke the new delivery method for control data packets.
- Introduced `push_control_data` in `CompanionFrameServer` to handle the sending of control data to clients.
- Enhanced `DiscoveryHelper` to support optional debug logging for control handling.
These changes improve the communication and control flow between the repeater and companion clients, facilitating better discovery response handling.
- Added raw RX and trace completion handlers to push data to connected companion clients.
- Enhanced PacketRouter to deliver ACK packets to all companion bridges.
- Introduced methods for retrieving companion statistics based on different types.
- Updated constants for handling new commands and responses in the companion protocol.
This update improves the interaction between the repeater and companion clients, enabling better data flow and monitoring capabilities.
- Add repeater/companion with frame server and constants
- Extend config, sqlite_handler, mesh_cli, packet_router for companion
- Update api_endpoints and auth_endpoints; adjust main entry

Based on PR #69
Add start_timestamp and end_timestamp parameters to the bulk_packets API
endpoint to allow time-range filtering for bulk packet retrieval.

Replace simplified airtime calculation with the proper Semtech reference
formula that accounts for:
- Coding rate (CR)
- CRC overhead
- Explicit/implicit header mode
- Low data rate optimization (SF11/SF12 at 125kHz)
The previous formula significantly underestimated airtime, especially
at higher spreading factors, leading to inaccurate duty cycle tracking.
