TSCM RF scan now auto-detects HackRF via SDRFactory and uses
hackrf_sweep as an alternative to rtl_power. Also includes
improvements to listening post, rtlamr, weather satellite,
SubGHz, Meshtastic, SSTV, WeFax, and process monitor modules.

VIS detection recognized these modes but ALL_MODES had no decoder specs,
causing silent decode failures on common HF frequencies like 14.230 MHz.
Also emit a user-visible SSE event when an unsupported VIS code is detected.

The previous fix (f29ae3d) introduced a regression: when VIS parity
check failed or the VIS code was unrecognized, the detector entered
DETECTED state permanently and never resumed scanning. Now it resets
to IDLE on validation failure and only enters DETECTED on success.
Also resets partial image progress counter between consecutive decodes
and adds SDR device claiming to general SSTV route to prevent conflicts.

VISDetector._process_window() was calling self.reset() inside the
STOP_BIT handler, wiping self._buffer before feed() could advance
past the triggering window. All audio samples buffered after the
VIS STOP_BIT (the start of the first scan line) were silently
discarded, causing the image decoder to begin decoding mid-stream
with no alignment reference. The result was every scan line being
desynchronised from the first, producing the diagonal stripes and
scrambled colours seen in decoded images.
Fix: remove the premature reset() from _process_window(). The
STOP_BIT handler now sets state=DETECTED and returns the result.
A new remaining_buffer property exposes the post-VIS samples.
_decode_audio_stream() and decode_file() capture those samples
before calling reset(), then immediately feed them into the newly
created SSTVImageDecoder so decoding begins from sample 0 of
the first sync pulse.

Adds a phosphor-persistence waveform scope showing audio RMS/peak
levels during ISS SSTV and General SSTV decoding, matching the
existing pager scope pattern with a purple color scheme.

Fix infinite CPU spin in PD120 decoding caused by a 1-sample rounding
mismatch between line_samples (24407) and the sum of sub-component
samples (24408). The feed() while loop would re-enter _decode_line()
endlessly when the buffer was too short by 1 sample. Added a stall
guard that breaks the loop when no progress is made.
Fix false "leader tone detected" in the signal monitor by requiring
the detected tone to dominate the other tone by 2x, matching the
approach already used by the VIS detector.

Users can now manage decoded SSTV images with download and delete actions
accessible from hover overlays on gallery cards, the full-size image modal
toolbar, and a "Clear All" button in the gallery header. Both ISS and
General SSTV modes are supported.

The decode canvas was always black because nothing drew on it. Now the
backend encodes partial JPEG snapshots every 5% progress and the frontend
uses an <img> tag with in-place DOM updates instead of recreating innerHTML
on every SSE event.

Shows the current VIS detection state machine position (Idle, Leader,
Break, Start bit, Data bits, etc.) in the signal monitor. This helps
diagnose why decoding may not be starting - e.g. if the VIS detector
is stuck in Idle despite a leader tone being present, the signal may
not contain a valid VIS header.

The Doppler tracking thread emits detecting events every 5s from a
separate thread, unaware of decode state. The previous to_dict() change
included signal_level for ALL detecting events, causing the frontend to
replace the decode progress canvas with the signal monitor mid-decode.
Fix: use None as default for signal_level so only signal-metrics events
(which explicitly set the value) include the field. Also add a frontend
guard to ignore detecting events while the UI is in decoding state.

The to_dict() method was skipping signal_level when it was 0, so the
frontend never received the field and never rendered the monitor.

Shows RMS audio level bar and SSTV tone classification (leader/sync/noise)
via SSE during detecting mode, replacing the static "Listening..." state
with actionable signal feedback.

When rtl_fm exits unexpectedly, read its stderr output to diagnose
the failure (no device, permission denied, etc.) and include the
error message in both the server log and the SSE progress event
sent to the browser.

Three bugs preventing the live SSTV pipeline from working:
1. Race condition: self._running was set AFTER starting the decode
thread, so the thread checked the flag, found it False, and exited
immediately without ever processing audio.
2. Ghost running state: when the decode thread exited (e.g. rtl_fm
died), self._running stayed True. The decoder reported as running
but was dead, and subsequent start() calls returned without doing
anything - permanently stuck until app restart.
3. VIS detection fragility: unclassifiable windows at tone transition
boundaries (mixed energy from two tones) caused the state machine
to reset from LEADER/BREAK states back to IDLE, dropping valid
VIS headers on real signals.

slowrx is a GTK GUI app that doesn't support CLI usage, so the SSTV
decoder was silently failing. This replaces it with a pure Python
implementation using numpy and Pillow that supports Robot36/72,
Martin1/2, Scottie1/2, and PD120/180 modes via VIS header auto-detection.
Key implementation details:
- Generalized Goertzel (DTFT) for exact-frequency tone detection
- Vectorized batch Goertzel for real-time pixel decoding performance
- Overlapping analysis windows for short-window frequency estimation
- VIS header detection state machine with parity validation
- Per-line sync re-synchronization for drift tolerance
