itk80 541b25b47c config: add pymc_tcp / pymc_usb radio_type branches
Wires the TCPLoRaRadio and USBLoRaRadio drivers that landed in pyMC_core
on 2026-05-13 (PR pyMC-dev/pyMC_core#68) into get_radio_for_board() so
they can be selected from a repeater config file without any code change
in main.py / api_endpoints.

Both branches follow the existing pattern: read host/port (TCP) or
serial port (USB) plus auth/LBT options from their own config section,
share the LoRa parameters from the common `radio` section, fall back to
the firmware-default sync word 0x12, and surface ImportError as a clear
RuntimeError if the installed pymc_core is too old to ship the drivers.

config.yaml.example documents both sections and updates the radio_type
header comment with the full supported list. Five new tests in
tests/test_radio_config.py monkeypatch the radio classes and verify the
section/parameter wiring + missing-required-field errors.

No web UI / endpoint changes — the deployment this targets edits the
config file directly. A GUI wizard for these radio types can land
separately if there's appetite.
