Timers: LTC is listener-only; admin switch, device/channel, grouped settings

Simplify LTC to its one working source — the built-in audio listener — and
make the admin UI reflect it.

Module:
- Remove the stage-display websocket source (stage-ws.js, stagePassword)
  and the /v1/timecode/status API probe — both dead on ProPresenter 21.4.
- Remove the remote-reader ingest (POST /ltc, ingestToken, tools/
  ltc-reader.js): the module owns LTC end to end now. The decoder selftest
  moves to modules/propresenter-timers/ltc.selftest.js so the engine stays
  covered.
- composeLtc collapses to the listener: running/stopped/nosignal, or a
  clear note when disabled / no device / capture failed / starting.
- Manifest: ltcEnabled is now a `switch`; ltcDevice and ltcChannel carry
  showWhen:"ltcEnabled"; ProPresenter and LTC fields carry `group` labels.

Shell (admin) — backward-compatible additions, coordinate with the shell lane:
- New `switch` field type (boolean shown as the enable-toggle control).
- `group`: consecutive fields render under a labeled subsection.
- `showWhen: "<key>"`: a field is shown only while that boolean/switch is
  on (and actually collapses — .field[hidden] override, since .field's
  display:flex outranks the [hidden] UA default).
- applyConfigPatch coerces `switch` as boolean. Documented in MODULE-GUIDE.

Verified: engine selftest (29 checks); listener decodes BlackHole loopback
(running 30fps, ageMs); device picker lists inputs; POST /ltc now 404s;
admin shows two labeled groups, the switch, and device/channel appearing
only when the switch is on (computed display none↔flex confirmed).

unmistakably red. Read-only — no start/stop controls. Admin config is in
two groups: **ProPresenter** (endpoint host : port, API password) and
**LTC Timecode** (the listener switch, and — when it's on — the audio
device and channel).
LTC lives behind the admin **LTC listener** switch — off means no LTC
tile in the picker at all. On, the sources, best first (ProPresenter's
HTTP API has no timecode route):
1. **Built-in listener** — the module captures the admin-selected audio
input device/channel on the ProdDash machine (native `ltc-capture`
helper, compiled on first use) and decodes the SMPTE frames
in-process: running/stopped/no-signal, timecode, frame rate (incl.
29.97 drop-frame). macOS note: the ProdDash server needs microphone
permission — launch it from a logged-in session (Start
ProdDash.command) and approve the one-time prompt; a server started
over SSH or by bare launchd silently captures zeros.
2. **Remote reader** — when a *different* machine hears the LTC, run
`tools/ltc-reader.js` there; it decodes the same way from a PCM pipe
(`ltc-capture`, ffmpeg, or sox; `--channels 18 --ch 5` picks one
input of a multichannel interface — never downmix LTC into program
audio) and POSTs to the module's `/ltc` route. `--selftest` checks
the decoder; `--demo` feeds synthetic LTC end-to-end with no audio
hardware.
3. A stage-display layout field labeled "LTC", read over ProPresenter's
stage websocket — value and freshness only, no frame rate.
ProPresenter exposes no timecode over any API, so LTC is decoded from the
audio signal, behind the admin **LTC listener** switch (off ⇒ no LTC tile
in the picker at all). On, the module captures the selected audio input
device/channel on the ProdDash machine — a native `ltc-capture` helper,
compiled on first use — and decodes the SMPTE frames in-process:
running/stopped/no-signal, the timecode counting frame-accurately in real
time, and the frame rate (incl. 29.97 drop-frame). macOS note: the
ProdDash server needs microphone permission — launch it from a logged-in
session (Start ProdDash.command) and approve the one-time prompt; a server
started over SSH or by bare launchd silently captures zeros. (Engine
self-test: `node modules/propresenter-timers/ltc.selftest.js`.)

Both schemas map field names to specs:
```
{ "type": "string" | "number" | "boolean" | "select" | "password" | "endpoint",

"options": [ { "value": "a", "label": "A" }, … ], // "select" only
"optionsRoute": "/devices" // "select" only, admin config only
}
```
`boolean` renders as a checkbox; `switch` is the same true/false value shown
as a toggle (use it for a feature on/off that other fields depend on).
`group` gathers consecutive fields under a labeled subsection in the admin
page, so a module with several distinct concerns (e.g. a ProPresenter
connection and an LTC audio input) reads as clearly separated blocks. Fields
with no `group` render loose, before/after the grouped ones in schema order.
`showWhen: "<key>"` hides a field until the boolean/`switch` field named
`<key>` is on — e.g. the audio device and channel appear only once the LTC
listener switch is enabled. The hidden field still keeps its stored value.
A `select` whose choices are only knowable at runtime (audio devices, serial
ports, discovered sources) sets `optionsRoute` instead of — or as a fallback
refresh of — static `options`: the admin page GETs
`/api/modules/<id><optionsRoute>` and expects `{ "options": [ { "value",
"label" }, … ] }` from one of the module's own server routes. The saved value
stays selectable even when the route is down or the option has vanished. (See
`propresenter-timers`' "LTC audio device" for a worked example.)

/**
* ProPresenter stage-display websocket client — the LTC timecode source.
*
* ProPresenter's HTTP openAPI exposes no timecode route (see server.js), but
* its classic stage-display websocket (ws://host:port/stagedisplay — the
* Pro6-era protocol, still answered by ProPresenter 21; verified live: it
* responds `{"acn":"ath","ath":…,"majorVersion":7,"minorVersion":21}`) streams
* the text of stage-layout fields. So: the operator puts a field labeled
* "LTC" on a stage layout, and this client reads that field's live text.
*
* Protocol (community-documented, github.com/jeffmikels/ProPresenter-API):
* → {"pwd":"<stage password>","ptl":610,"acn":"ath"}
* ← {"acn":"ath","ath":true|false,"err":"…"}
* → {"acn":"psl"} ← {"acn":"psl","uid":"<layout uid>"}
* → {"acn":"asl"} ← {"acn":"asl","ary":[{acn:"sl",uid,nme,fme:[…]},…]}
* ← {"acn":"sys","txt":" 11:17 AM"} every second — our liveness signal
* ← {"acn":"tmr","uid":"…","txt":"…"} live text for a layout field's uid
*
* A layout's `fme` frames carry `nme` (the label) and, for linked fields, a
* `uid`. We bind to the first frame labeled "LTC" (case-insensitive), then
* treat any message carrying that uid as the timecode text — matching by uid
* rather than acn on purpose, since how ProPresenter 21 tags timecode
* updates is undocumented. "Receiving" is a staleness heuristic: LTC text
* that hasn't advanced for STALE_MS is a frozen/no-signal feed.
*
* Zero-dependency by design (like the rest of ProdDash): a minimal RFC6455
* client — masked client frames, text + ping/pong + close, fragmented text
* reassembly. TLS is not needed (ProPresenter's server is plain ws://).

/**
* ltc-reader — decode SMPTE LTC from an audio feed and push it to ProdDash.
*
* ProPresenter's APIs expose no timecode (see modules/propresenter-timers),
* so this tool reads LTC where it actually lives: the audio signal. Pipe
* PCM (signed 16-bit little-endian) into stdin from any capture front-end;
* the decoded state is POSTed to the Timers module's /ltc ingest route —
* ~4×/s while running, 1×/s as a keepalive otherwise, and immediately on
* every state change.
*
* macOS (ffmpeg; list input devices with
* `ffmpeg -f avfoundation -list_devices true -i ""`):
* ffmpeg -loglevel error -f avfoundation -i ":0" -ac 1 -ar 48000 \
* -f s16le - | node tools/ltc-reader.js --url http://127.0.0.1:24500
* sox (default input device):
* sox -q -d -t raw -b 16 -e signed -c 1 -r 48000 - | node tools/ltc-reader.js
* Windows (ffmpeg/dshow):
* ffmpeg -loglevel error -f dshow -i audio="<device name>" -ac 1 \
* -ar 48000 -f s16le - | node tools/ltc-reader.js
*
* LTC on one input of a multichannel interface (a console bus, a Dante/
* MADI card, input 5 of a Scarlett 18i20…): do NOT downmix with -ac 1 —
* summing LTC with program audio corrupts the bit transitions. Capture the
* channels as they are and tell the reader which one carries LTC (1-based):
* ffmpeg -loglevel error -f avfoundation -i ":0" -ar 48000 -f s16le - \
* | node tools/ltc-reader.js --channels 18 --ch 5
* (--channels must match what the capture actually emits; ffmpeg keeps
* the device's native count unless -ac says otherwise, and prints it on
* stderr at startup. sox: match its -c flag.)
*
* Flags:
* --url <base> ProdDash base URL (default http://127.0.0.1:24500)
* --module <id> target module id (default propresenter-timers)
* --token <secret> matches the module's "LTC reader token" admin setting
* --sr <hz> stdin sample rate (default 48000)
* --channels <n> interleaved channels in the stdin stream (default 1)
* --ch <n> which channel carries LTC, 1-based (default 1)
* --source <label> reader label in reports (default this machine's hostname)
* --demo no audio needed: synthesize running 30 fps LTC (with a
* stop every ~30 s) through the real decoder, and POST it
* --selftest run the encoder→decoder test suite and exit
*
* Decoding: LTC is an 80-bit SMPTE frame, biphase-mark coded — a level
* transition at every bit boundary plus one mid-bit for a 1. The decoder
* tracks transitions with an envelope-scaled hysteresis comparator (so
* input level doesn't matter), classifies the transition gaps as full/half
* bit periods against an adaptive period estimate, shifts bits until the
* sync word appears, then reads the BCD fields. Frame rate locks from
* second-rollover consensus (bit clock until then); the drop-frame
* bit distinguishes 29.97 DF. Reverse play is not decoded (the sync word
* never matches backwards) — for booth status that reads as "stopped",
* which is the honest summary anyway.
