ChuckandClaude Opus 5 170682eed9 feat(render_plugin): add --display-mode so multi-mode plugins can be rendered
render_plugin.py always called plugin.display(force_clear=True) with no mode.
A plugin that declares one display mode is fine, but the sports scoreboards
declare three or more and keep their per-mode state on sub-managers; their
no-argument path selects nothing and returns False, so the render came out
blank with nothing to say why. Measured on nrl-scoreboard with identical
seeded state:

  live.display() directly                 True,  1892 lit pixels
  plugin.display(display_mode="nrl_live") True,  1892 lit pixels
  plugin.display()                        False,    0 lit pixels

--display-mode passes the requested mode through. It is only passed when
asked for, so the many plugins whose display() takes no display_mode keep
working untouched, and a plugin that declares modes but does not accept the
argument degrades to its default screen with a warning rather than a
TypeError.

This is what lets the plugin READMEs show a scoreboard at all, and it also
unblocks screens like birdnet_stats and the weather plugin's hourly, daily and
almanac modes, which could previously only be described in prose.
