fix(wifi): make Connect work from the setup AP (#571)

* fix(wifi): make Connect work from the setup AP

Joining a network from LEDMatrix-Setup has to take the AP down first, which
drops the phone that sent the request. The connect endpoint answered only
after the attempt finished, so the browser never got a reply and the WiFi
tab's Connect button appeared to do nothing.

- /wifi/connect answers 202 immediately while the AP is active and connects
  in a background thread; the result (never the password) is reported via
  /wifi/status as last_connect_attempt. A second connect while one is
  pending gets 409.
- connect_to_network holds a /tmp flag for the attempt; the monitor daemon
  skips AP management while it is fresh. Previously the daemon's
  disconnected counter, accumulated over the whole AP session, re-enabled
  the AP on its next tick in the middle of the connect.
- The WiFi tab and captive setup page explain the handoff up front, and on
  reopening show why the last attempt failed. The wrong-password message
  now works: the route sets the error_type the captive page checks.

* fix(wifi): serialize connect attempts on both paths

Addresses CodeRabbit review on #571:

- Check for a pending attempt before branching on AP state. A background
  attempt takes the AP down long before it finishes, so a second click
  used to bypass the 409 and start a competing synchronous connect.
- Record pending for the synchronous (non-AP) path too, so two requests
  can't overlap and have the first clear the daemon's in-progress flag
  while the second is still connecting.
- Clear the pending state if the background thread fails to start, rather
  than refusing every later request until restart.
- Say the setup network returns "within a few minutes": a stale flag plus
  the daemon's grace period can take longer than one.
