fix(tci): subscribe to the radio's meters; fix the new-spot count; explain an SMTP refusal

TCI meters: the S-meter came only from RX_SMETER and the transmit meters from
TX_POWER / TX_SWR — commands ExpertSDR3 does not send. The protocol's answer is
a subscription (RX_SENSORS_ENABLE / TX_SENSORS_ENABLE, §4.4 of the TCI PDF),
after which the radio pushes RX_CHANNEL_SENSORS and TX_SENSORS. Nobody had
asked, so the console's meters sat empty in RX and in TX while everything else
worked.

Cluster: the held-spot counter looked for the row it froze on. A station spotted
again REPLACES its row, so that row vanishes in the ordinary course of things
and the count fell through to 'everything is new' — 4, 5, then 500. Counted by
timestamp now, which survives both the replacement and the ring buffer.

SMTP: '535 5.7.139 basic authentication is disabled' is a policy, not a typo.
The message now says so, and says what actually helps, without claiming a policy
when the server simply rejected the password.
