James Rich f8c7cc02ea Add Local Mesh Discovery feature
* Introduce a new `:feature:discovery` module for scanning mesh topology across multiple LoRa presets
* Add `DiscoveryScanEngine` to manage scan lifecycles, preset shifting, and packet collection
* Update database schema to version 39 with tables for discovery sessions, preset results, and discovered nodes
* Implement UI screens for scan configuration, real-time progress, and historical session management
* Add flavor-specific discovery maps (Google Maps and OSM) for visualizing node positions and topology
* Include algorithmic and AI-powered summary generation for analyzing LoRa preset performance
* Add report export functionality for Text and PDF formats

:core:network

Overview

The :core:network module handles all internet-based communication, including fetching firmware metadata, device hardware definitions, and map tiles (in the fdroid flavor). It also provides the shared radio transport layer (TCPInterface, SerialTransport, BleRadioInterface).

Key Components

1. Ktor Client

The module uses Ktor as its primary HTTP client for high-performance, asynchronous networking.

2. Remote Data Sources

  • FirmwareReleaseRemoteDataSource: Fetches the latest firmware versions from GitHub or Meshtastic's metadata servers.
  • DeviceHardwareRemoteDataSource: Fetches definitions for supported Meshtastic hardware devices.

3. Shared Transports

  • BleRadioInterface: Multiplatform BLE transport powered by Kable.
  • TCPInterface: Multiplatform TCP transport.
  • SerialTransport: JVM-shared USB/Serial transport powered by jSerialComm.
  • BaseRadioTransportFactory: Common factory for instantiating the KMP transports.
