rouggy 7d33379fe1 feat(cluster): feed the locator store from PSK Reporter, filtered at the broker
The store shipped without its main source. Locators came only from this
station's own WSJT-X decodes, which is what the whole MQTT discussion was
about.

PSK Reporter now feeds it through a new OnGrid callback, fired before any
geographic filtering: what the store wants is "which square is this callsign
in", and that is true whoever happened to hear the report.

The subscription filters on the RECEIVER's square, a level the v2 topic
exposes. Measured on the live feed: the four opening bands unfiltered are 83
messages a second, of which roughly one in a hundred survived the NearKm test
that already existed here — the rest was received, TLS-decrypted, JSON-parsed
and discarded. One ring of squares is 0.2 to 1.2 a second.

By square rather than by DXCC, which was the obvious alternative: one country
measured 1.2 messages a second (OH) against 72.5 (K) on a single band, because
a DXCC can be a continent. By square the same measurement is 0.2 to 1.2, so the
load follows distance — what the feed is actually about — and is the same for
every operator.

Grid chasing subscribes with the "+" band wildcard, so one subscription per
square covers every band instead of one per band per square.

The store gains a source column (decode | mqtt), migrated in place on an
existing file.

// Package gridcache is the long-term callsign→grid store behind grid chasing.
//
// Its own SQLite file, not a table in the settings database: that one sits
// wherever the operator put it, often a synchronised folder, and this rewrites
// itself every minute. Deleting the file costs a few days of listening.
//
// A callsign has one grid and the newest report wins — a stale locator reads as
// a square already worked, which is worse than none.
