An any-hour READY fix runs while ALARMS is muted too

The LTC write only puts a note in Planning Center; nothing in the room notices, so the mute (pressed

 - Never automatic: restarting a running ProPresenter, Bible app, ProdCom (or DVS on NA Ingest, which restarts ProdCom), captions or the bridge, power-cycling a switch port, or turning on a connection someone switched off. `load_config` refuses an auto fix that closes a program.
 - **Daily log:** everything auto-fix does is written as it happens to `~/Desktop/Auto-Fix Logs/<date> <weekday> Auto-Fix.log` on NA Ingest (e.g. `2026-10-11 Sunday Auto-Fix.log`): the problem, what it did, whether it worked, when the fault cleared, when it gave up or held back. Double-click it to open it in Console, which shows new lines live. One file per day; each is deleted a calendar month after its date (the 11 Oct file on 11 Nov).
 - Press ALARMS to mute the panel for maintenance: that also stops auto-fix. The window and the list are `"auto_fix"` in `config.json`.
