* feat(sync): multi-display wireless sync — extend scrolling across two LED matrices

Adds a leader/follower sync system that extends Vegas scroll mode content
continuously across two physically adjacent LED matrix units over WiFi.

Architecture:
- Leader broadcasts scroll position via UDP at ~90fps; follower renders
  the offset slice of the same image at 60fps using dead reckoning to
  absorb UDP jitter (smooth, stutter-free motion)
- At each cycle transition the leader sends the composed scroll image via
  TCP (PNG-compressed ~15–40KB) so both displays render pixel-identical
  content regardless of plugin data timing differences
- Auto-discovery via UDP subnet broadcast — no IP configuration required
- Heartbeat watchdog (6s timeout) falls back to standalone if peer goes offline

Key files:
- src/common/sync_manager.py  — new: UDP/TCP state machine, hello/ack
  handshake, scroll_x sender/receiver, TCP image transfer, pending-image
  flag for clean cycle transitions
- src/display_controller.py   — follower render loop with dead reckoning:
  advances local position at configured scroll speed, corrects drift
  toward received scroll_x (20% on >10px gap, 5% near target, snap on
  cycle reset); _follower_pending_new_image holds last frame during TCP
  image gap
- src/vegas_mode/render_pipeline.py — leader sends scroll_x at ~90fps,
  start_new_cycle() resets position to display_width (not 0) and sends
  TCP image in background thread
- src/vegas_mode/coordinator.py — set_sync_manager() / set_update_callback()
  wiring; defers hot-swap recompose while sync is active
- web_interface/blueprints/api_v3.py — sync config save endpoint, GET
  /api/v3/sync/status for live status polling
- web_interface/templates/v3/partials/display.html — Multi-Display Sync
  section: role selector (Standalone/Leader/Follower), position (Left/Right
  of leader, follower only), UDP port, live status indicator
- config/config.template.json — sync block: role, port, follower_position

* fix(sync): address PR review findings

- sync_manager: replace Optional[callable] with proper Callable types from
  typing; tighten set_on_new_cycle/set_on_scroll_image/set_on_follower_connected
  signatures to match their actual callback signatures
- sync_manager: log a one-shot warning when send_frame produces a packet
  exceeding the 65000-byte UDP cap instead of silently dropping it
- display_controller: correct stale comment in _send_follower_frame (was
  "30fps / PNG encode/decode"; actual behavior is ~90fps raw RGB)
- display.html: guard setInterval with window.syncStatusInterval to prevent
  duplicate pollers if the script runs more than once
- display.html: replace innerHTML with DOM node creation + textContent for
  status icon/text to avoid inserting API-derived values via innerHTML

Skip: time.time() → monotonic and self.config staleness are pre-existing
issues not introduced by this PR.

* fix(sync): address second round of PR review findings

- sync_manager: guard TCP image receive against OOM — validate length
  against 10 MB cap before allocating; log and close on invalid length
- display_controller: _follower_gated_update now allows update_display()
  through when the leader is offline (is_follower_active() == False) so
  the display recovers normally when falling back to standalone mode
- coordinator: normalize a standalone SyncManager to None in
  set_sync_manager() so the render pipeline never treats a no-op manager
  as an active one
- coordinator: derive _UPDATE_TICK_FRAMES from target_fps * 4 instead of
  the hardcoded 500 so the ~4s cadence holds at any configured FPS
- render_pipeline: replace bare except/pass on blank-frame push with
  logger.exception() so failures are visible in logs

Skip: config.template.json comments — JSON does not support inline comments.

* fix(sync): address third round of PR review findings

- sync_manager: use 'with socket.socket(...)' in send_scroll_image so the
  TCP socket is always closed even if connect/sendall raises
- sync_manager: add _scroll_image_lock to serialize all reads/writes to
  _on_scroll_image and _pending_scroll_image between _image_server_loop
  and set_on_scroll_image, eliminating the lost-delivery race; callback
  is invoked outside the lock to avoid holding it during user code
- sync_manager: validate scroll image dimensions (max 100000×256) and
  catch DecompressionBombError before img.load() in _image_server_loop
- sync_manager: log socket close exceptions at debug level in stop()
  instead of silently passing
- sync_manager: replace hardcoded /tmp/ with tempfile.gettempdir() for
  STATUS_FILE (atomic write was already in place)
- sync_manager: check _RAW_MAGIC first in _follower_recv_loop routing
  so magic-tagged frames are always identified correctly regardless of size

* fix(sync): address fourth round of PR review findings

- sync_manager: log INCOMPATIBLE error only on state transition (guard
  with prev_state != LeaderState.INCOMPATIBLE) so repeated hello packets
  from an incompatible follower don't spam the log
- sync_manager: replace O(n²) bytes concatenation in TCP image receive
  loop with bytearray + extend() for linear-time accumulation

* fix(sync): suppress Codacy false positives

- display_controller: rename local var 'sh' to 'scroll_h' so Codacy's
  pattern matcher doesn't confuse it with the 'sh' shell library
- sync_manager: add '# nosec B104' to all socket.bind("") calls —
  binding to all interfaces is intentional (UDP broadcast reception and
  TCP image server must accept connections from any local interface)

Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* fix(sync): add nosec B104 to socket creation lines for Codacy

Codacy attributes the bind-to-all-interfaces finding to the socket.socket()
creation lines (140, 439) rather than the .bind() calls. Added # nosec B104
there too so the suppression is seen at the line Codacy reports.
