Implements fcntl.flock() based locking for serial transport to prevent
USB serial conflicts when collect_companion and collect_repeater run
simultaneously. This addresses Ofelia's limitation where no-overlap
only prevents a job from overlapping with itself, not other jobs.
Key changes:
- Add connect_with_lock() async context manager to meshcore_client.py
- Use non-blocking LOCK_NB with async polling to avoid freezing event loop
- Only lock for serial transport (TCP/BLE don't need it)
- 60s timeout with clear error message if lock cannot be acquired
- Update collector scripts to use new context manager
- Remove external flock from cron examples (now handled in Python)

GITHUB_TOKEN cannot trigger other workflows by design. Using a
fine-grained PAT (RELEASE_PLEASE_TOKEN) scoped to this repo only
allows releases to properly trigger the docker-publish workflow.

Docker Compose merges arrays instead of replacing them, so having
a default device in docker-compose.yml caused conflicts with override
files. Serial device configuration now requires docker-compose.override.yml,
which is cleaner since:
- Device paths vary per system
- TCP transport users don't need devices at all

Simplify setup by having Python automatically load configuration from
meshcore.conf at module import time. This eliminates the need to source
config files in cron jobs or use direnv.
- Add _load_config_file() to env.py that parses shell-style config
- Environment variables always take precedence (Docker-friendly)
- Rename .envrc.example to meshcore.conf.example (no direnv dependency)
- Update cron examples to use flock for USB serial locking
- Simplify documentation to use traditional .venv/ virtualenv
BREAKING CHANGE: Configuration file renamed from .envrc to meshcore.conf.
Users must copy meshcore.conf.example to meshcore.conf and migrate their
settings. The new file format is the same (shell-style exports) but
without the direnv-specific "layout python3" command.
