feat(tci): the transmit meters, and no temperature invented
TX_POWER and TX_SWR are read-only commands the radio answers when asked, so they are asked for on each poll of a KEYED radio and not at all otherwise: a receiving station pays nothing for meters nobody is watching. Both appear next to the S-meter only while transmitting, because showing them the rest of the time would show the last thing that happened as if it were now. An SWR of 0 draws as '—' rather than as 1.0. A perfect match on an antenna nobody has measured is the one reading an operator should never be handed. There is no temperature. The protocol's command list has TX_POWER and TX_SWR and nothing thermal at all — so rather than leave the question hanging, it is written down where the next person will look for it. A temperature invented from something else, on a transmitter, is exactly the kind of number somebody would trust.
