ChuckandClaude Opus 5.5 13bbb537f3 refactor(web): one logging setup and one TTL cache for the web process (#621)
* refactor(web): use src.logging_config in the web process; routine requests to DEBUG

The web interface had its own logging setup (web_interface/logging_config.py)
that replaced the root handlers with a plain stdout formatter. The web
service's journal lines therefore never carried a syslog priority, so
`journalctl -p err -u ledmatrix-web` returned nothing while errors were
logged, and the line shape differed from the display's (the log viewer's
prefix stripping only matched the display format). It also ran after the
module-level managers were built, so their INFO lines at import (including
"Re-removed N uninstalled plugin(s)") were dropped.

app.py now calls src.logging_config.setup_logging() first thing, the same as
run.py: journald priorities under systemd, LEDMATRIX_DEBUG honoured,
LEDMATRIX_JSON_LOGGING still selects JSON.

Per-request logging moves to web_interface/request_logging.py. Every request
used to be logged at INFO, so the UI's polling filled the journal
("GET /api/v3/errors/summary - 200" every minute per tab). Now a successful
GET/HEAD/OPTIONS is DEBUG, a successful write is INFO, 4xx WARNING, 5xx
ERROR. Durations use perf_counter and print to 0.1ms.

The duplicate module is deleted; nothing else imported it.

* refactor(web): one thread-safe TTL cache for the web process

web_interface/cache.py becomes a small TTLCache class (lock-guarded,
monotonic clock) with the existing get_cached/set_cached/delete_cached/
invalidate_cache helpers kept on top of a shared instance, so the api_v3
callers are unchanged.

Bugs fixed:
- set_cached(ttl_seconds=...) ignored its TTL; only the reader's value
  counted and get_cached defaulted to 60s. An entry now expires after the TTL
  it was stored with; a reader's ttl_seconds can only shorten that. Both
  current callers pass the same value on both sides (fonts_catalog 300s,
  system_status 10s), so their observable TTLs are unchanged.
- get_cached deleted expired keys without a lock; two threads reading the
  same expired key could raise KeyError (reproduced), which the endpoints
  turned into a 500.

app.py's two hand-rolled systemctl caches (_ap_mode_cache, 30s, and
_ledmatrix_service_cache, 15s) now share one helper over a private
TTLCache, with the same TTLs. The AP-mode check used to retry on every
request after a failure (and log an ERROR each time); a failure now keeps the
last known answer for the TTL, as the display-service check already did. With
no systemctl at all (a dev machine) it answers False without forking.

Left alone as not TTL memoisation: the gzip cache (size-bounded, keyed by URL
and version), the settings search index (keyed by installed-plugin set), the
widget bundle (keyed by file fingerprint) and CacheManager (cross-process).

* docs(changelog): web logging and TTL cache

* fix(web): only ask systemctl about known units

Codacy flagged the systemctl argv built from a variable. The unit now has
to be one of two literals, and anything else raises.

* fix(web): response_time_ms reads the same clock request_logging stamps

request_logging now stamps request.start_time from perf_counter, but
success_response still subtracted it from time.time(), so metadata
reported ~1.8e12 ms. Found testing on ledpi.

"""The web process logs the way the display process does.
web_interface/app.py used to call its own setup (web_interface/logging_config.py)
which replaced the root handlers with a plain stdout formatter. Under systemd
every line then reached the journal as PRIORITY=6, so
journalctl -p err -u ledmatrix-web
showed nothing while the web interface was logging errors. It also logged
every request at INFO, including what the UI polls: the journal on a Pi showed
``GET /api/v3/errors/summary - 200`` every minute per open tab.
