rouggy 38b480a985 feat: share the CAT link with other programs (Hamlib NET rigctl server)
A native CAT backend owns the rig's serial port, and Windows gives a COM port to
one process — so choosing native CAT locked WSJT-X, MSHV and JTDX out of the
radio entirely. That is the cost of dropping OmniRig, which was itself a sharing
layer, and it has to be paid back.

OpsLog now becomes the server, as wfview does. It speaks the Hamlib net rigctl
protocol, which every one of those programs supports natively (rig model "Hamlib
NET rigctl", 127.0.0.1:4532) with no driver to install. It sits in front of the
MANAGER, not a backend, so an operator on OmniRig, Flex, Icom or TCI gets the
same server.

Two details that decide whether a client works at all rather than degrading:
dump_state is parsed positionally and WSJT-X refuses to proceed without a
well-formed block, so it is written out in full and its shape is pinned by a
test; and set_vfo / set_split_vfo answer RPRT 0 rather than an error, because
OpsLog follows the rig's own VFO and a refusal makes WSJT-X abandon the
connection. Unknown commands answer RPRT -11 — never silence, which hangs a
client instead.

The whole protocol is tested against a fake rig, plus one end-to-end exchange
over a real socket, since the framing is as much the contract as the text.

Also: the Yaesu backend is confirmed working on a real FTDX10 (frequency, mode,
VFO, split), so its "not yet verified" note is now wrong and is corrected.

// Native Yaesu CAT over the rig's serial/USB port — no OmniRig.
//
// Why this exists: OmniRig sits between OpsLog and the radio and adds its own
// rig-description files, its own VFO/split interpretation and its own polling.
// Every Yaesu problem reported so far came from that layer disagreeing with the
// radio — a .ini that never exposes the VFO, a Freq property that means A on one
// model and B on another, a split flag that alternates. Talking to the rig
// directly removes the disagreement: what the radio answers is what we show.
//
// ── The protocol ──────────────────────────────────────────────────────────
// Modern Yaesu CAT is plain ASCII: a command, its arguments, and a ';'
// terminator. A query is the command with no argument; the rig echoes the same
// command with the value. It is the same shape as Kenwood's, which is why an
// FTDX10 answers a Kenwood-speaking logger for the basics.
//
// FA; → FA014074000; VFO A frequency, 9 digits, Hz
// FB; → FB014100000; VFO B frequency
// MD0; → MD02; operating mode of the main receiver
// VS; → VS0; which VFO is selected (0=A, 1=B)
// ST; → ST1; split (FTDX10/FTDX101)
// FT; → FT1; TX VFO (FT-991A/FT-710/FT-891 family)
// TX1; / TX0; key / unkey
// ID; → ID0761; model identifier
//
// Two of these are genuinely uncertain across the family and are treated as
// such rather than guessed at: SPLIT is read through ST and, if the rig does not
// answer that, through FT — whichever replies wins, and the choice is
// remembered. Every unrecognised reply is logged raw, because that log is the
// only way to learn a model's real behaviour from an operator's shack.
//
// Verified on: FTDX10, 2026-07-29 — frequency, mode, VFO and split all correct
// against the radio. The other models are still inference from the same CAT
// reference; anything this file asserts about a rig it has not met should be
// read as a hypothesis with a log line attached.
