rouggy 01a23ccb77 feat(tci): read the radio's declared format, and record a test WAV
The SunSDR announces its own stream at connect —
audio_stream_sample_type:float32 and audio_stream_channels:2 — and both
were being logged as unhandled while the code worked the format out from
frame arithmetic. The declaration is better evidence and arrives before
the first frame; the arithmetic stays as the check on it. The channel
count now drives the mix-down instead of an assumed stereo.

Adds a ten-second test recording, written as a WAV beside the QSO
recordings. Counting frames proves a socket is delivering bytes; it says
nothing about whether those bytes are the receiver's audio, at the right
rate, in the right order. A stream decoded with the width wrong or the
samples misaligned counts exactly as well as a correct one and sounds
like a fan — so the test is a file the operator can play, the same way
the CW decoder was settled on the air rather than on a spectrogram.

The file is written at the rate the RADIO reported, not a constant: a
recording at the wrong rate plays at the wrong speed, which is the one
fault that would be blamed on the decoding.

// TCI audio — receiving the radio's audio over the same WebSocket that carries
// the commands, so a SunSDR needs no virtual audio cable.
//
// TCI mixes two kinds of frame on one socket: TEXT frames are the commands
// ("trx:0,true;"), BINARY frames are streams. A binary frame is a fixed header
// followed by float32 samples:
//
// uint32 receiver which receiver the stream belongs to
// uint32 sampleRate Hz
// uint32 format 0 = float32
// uint32 codec 0 = uncompressed
// uint32 crc unused in practice
// uint32 length samples in the payload
// uint32 type which stream this is (see tciStream*)
// uint32 reserved[9]
// float32 payload[…] stereo, interleaved
//
// The stream is asked for with "audio_samplerate:" then "audio_start:<rx>;",
// and stopped with "audio_stop:<rx>;".
//
// NOTHING HERE IS CONFIRMED ON A RADIO YET. The layout above is read from the
// TCI documentation, and the stream-type numbers in particular are the sort of
// detail a document gets right and a memory of it does not — so every header is
// logged for the first few seconds of a session, and the numbers the radio
// actually sends will settle it. Same discipline as the Yaesu meters and the
// Flex spot feed: measure on the real thing, then write the constant down.
