The reader thread loop checks self._running but it was being set to
True after _start_satdump() returned, which is after the thread
already started. The thread would see _running=False and exit
immediately without reading any SatDump output.

SatDump writes to stderr via fwrite() with its custom logger. When
stderr is redirected to a pipe, C runtime fully buffers it. Neither
stdbuf nor bufsize settings help since SatDump doesn't use stdio for
output.
PTY (pseudo-terminal) makes SatDump think it's writing to a real
terminal, which disables buffering. Also strips ANSI escape codes
from the output and properly handles \r progress lines.
