- base: Tailscale's per-codename .nosetup.sh install scripts are gone
(404); switch to the universal tailscale.com/install.sh, and split
install/enable (always) from auth (only when a key is given) so a
node without an authkey still gets Tailscale installed, just not
authenticated.
- meshcore_capture: the current upstream installer (v2.0.0+, what a
fresh install now produces) uses a completely different layout than
dm-baldock/dm-ashwell's older flat ~/.meshcore-packet-capture setup —
dedicated system user, /opt + /etc/meshcore-packet-capture,
config.d/*.toml, meshcore-packet-capture.service. Added
meshcore_capture_layout (system/legacy) so the role targets the right
paths/service name per host without touching the two working legacy
nodes. New 99-user.toml.j2 replicates the old MQTT broker coverage
(letsmesh us/eu, meshrank, ukmesh, meshmapper) in the new config.d
override format.
- dm-edworth: fill in serial_port now that the MeshCore device is
connected; confirmed running and publishing to all 5 brokers.
- README: fix broken list formatting, document the installer's
required manual step and why.

1.9.6 (the newest Flathub offers) silently no-ops on cloud-init
customisation for this Trixie image, only writing the kernel
regdomain cmdline param — looks exactly like a wifi bug but is really
a missing-credentials-on-the-card bug. Also brings the README's
host_vars paths, vault usage, and role list up to date with the
wifi role / vault work.

Each node now gets three NetworkManager wifi connections via a new
wifi role: dotnetwork (home), dotmobile (phone hotspot, for field
troubleshooting), and a host-specific deployed-location network.
Credentials live in a new per-repo ansible-vault (group and host
scoped), matching the pattern already used in dotnetwork.
Also updates the README's Pi imaging instructions from Bookworm to
Trixie, matching what the nodes actually run.

Roles: base (apt, tailscale, motd), meshcore_cli (pipx), meshcore_capture
(agessaman/meshcore-packet-capture + .env.local template), scripts (voltage, bandwidth).
Host vars contain per-device serial ports; group vars hold shared MQTT broker config.
