allow_insecure_mqtt (CWE-319, requested): a password with TLS disabled crosses
the network in cleartext. Refused now rather than merely warned about -- but
refused, not forbidden, because unencrypted MQTT on a trusted LAN is a normal
deliberate setup. allow_insecure_mqtt is the explicit acknowledgement, defaults
false, and is coerced like the other booleans so the string "false" cannot
switch the guard off.
starlark.py:796 -- the supported service runs Flask threaded, so two start
requests could each see running=False, each launch an editor, and the second
state write replace the first PID, orphaning a process that holds the display
down with nothing recording it. The check-launch-write sequence now takes a
module-level lock.
starlark.py:848 -- if the state write failed the route returned success with an
editor running and no PID recorded: status and stop both reported no session
while the display stayed down until the timeout expired. It now terminates the
process group and returns an error.
starlark.py:890 -- SIGKILL gives the script's EXIT trap no chance to run, so
nothing hands the display back, yet the response said "the display is
restarting". After an escalation the display is now restarted explicitly, and a
failure to do so returns an error naming the manual step instead of a success.
pixlet_config_editor.sh:184 -- find_pixlet supports Darwin but macOS ships no
timeout(1); GNU coreutils installs it as gtimeout. Resolved up front so the
failure lands before the display is stopped rather than after.
pixlet_config_editor.sh:154 -- wildcard, loopback and an explicit interface
address are three cases, not two. Collapsing the last two printed a URL saying
"localhost" whenever PIXLET_EDITOR_HOST named a LAN address.
tools.html:1254 -- escHtml does not encode single quotes, and the app id was
interpolated into an inline onclick="startPixletEditor('...')", so a directory
containing an apostrophe could break out of the JS string and run script. The
handler binds with addEventListener and reads the id from dataset, where it is
only ever parsed as an HTML attribute.
Tests: test_mqtt_bridge_config_endpoint.py grows to 23 cases covering the opt-in
in both directions. The tools DOM suite gains three guards asserting the edit
buttons carry no inline onclick and pass the id via dataset -- those need jsdom
and did not run here, so CI verifies them.

PR #544's change, ported onto the api_v3 package split (#553). Identical
behaviour; only the placement of the new code differs.
The original added 508 lines to web_interface/blueprints/api_v3.py, which #553
deletes, so every hunk of it would conflict irreconcilably. Ported by AST:
26 new top-level items sorted to where the split puts each kind --
__init__.py 2 imports, 11 constants, 7 helpers
starlark.py 4 routes (/starlark/editor/{apps,status,start,stop})
misc.py 2 routes (/integrations/mqtt-bridge{,/config})
Everything outside api_v3.py -- the Tools partial, the installer scripts, the
JS tests -- applied unchanged.
Routes: 111 from the split plus these 6 = 117, and the url-map snapshot is
regenerated to match, which is exactly what test_api_v3_url_map.py is designed
to make you do when routes are added.
Full Python suite: 4,278 passed, 68 skipped, 0 failed. The JS tests this PR
ships could not be run here -- node is not installed on this machine -- so
test/js/dom/test_tools_sections.js is unverified.
