Merge feature/edge-calibration-wizard: auto edge-calibration + first-run wizard

Auto edge-calibration via on-screen chase (#4) and a guided first-run setup
wizard (#3); spatial model (#11) intentionally excluded. Also adds scene
playlists + cycling state to the /api/v1/snapshot poll.

- calibration solver + chase session (lock, idle-timeout, stop/restore) + /api/v1/calibration/* (phase 1)
- POST /api/v1/setup/scaffold (rollback, registers target with manager) + onboarding flag (phase 2)
- reusable browser-driven auto-calibration flow + calibration-modal entry (phase 3)
- guided first-run wizard with first-run trigger + tour suppression (phase 4)
- snapshot endpoint returns scene_playlists + playlist_state

+## Calibration
+
+Guided LED chase and auto-solver for the `CalibrationConfig` stored on a
+color-strip source.  The flow is:
+
+1. **Start** a session (`POST /session`) — stops any running target on the
+   device and remembers it for restore on stop.
+2. **Position** the chase pixel (`POST /session/position`) to walk through
+   each physical corner and record the LED index.
+3. **Solve** (`POST /solve`) — the server computes per-edge LED counts.
+4. **Persist** — call `PUT /api/v1/color-strip-sources/{id}` with the solved
+   `calibration` object to save and hot-reload.
+5. **Stop** (`POST /session/stop`) — clears the device and restores the prior
+   target.
+
+| Method | Path | Description |
+| ------ | ---- | ----------- |
+| POST | `/api/v1/calibration/session` | Start a calibration session on a device (stops the running target, clears to black). |
+| POST | `/api/v1/calibration/session/position` | Advance the chase pixel to LED `index` (± `window` dim neighbours). |

+| POST | `/api/v1/calibration/session/cancel` | Alias for stop — no calibration is applied. |

+
+**Session state** response shape:
+
+```json
+{
+  "active": true,
+  "device_id": "dev_abc123",
+  "led_count": 100,
+  "prior_target_id": "ot_xyz456",

+  "start_position": "bottom_left",
+  "layout": "clockwise",
+  "corner_indices": [0, 30, 60, 80],
+  "offset": 0
+}
+```
+
+`corner_indices` must be exactly 4 integers, one per screen corner, in the
+strip-walk order defined by `(start_position, layout)`.  Provide either
+`device_id` (preferred — server derives `led_count`) or `led_count` directly.
+
+**Important session behavior:**
+
+- **Stops the running output target** — starting a calibration session immediately
+  stops any output target currently running on that device.  Other clients driving
+  that device will lose their output for the duration of the session.
+- **Single session only** — only one calibration session runs at a time across the
+  whole server.  Starting a new session automatically ends the previous one (clearing
+  and restoring its device first), regardless of which device each session is on.
+- **Idle auto-end** — a session that receives no `position` calls for ~60 seconds is
+  automatically stopped and the prior target restored, so devices are never left dark
+  indefinitely.
+
+**Idle timeout:** a session that receives no `position` calls for 60 seconds
+is automatically stopped and the prior target restored.
+
+## Setup scaffold
+
+One-call first-run helper that creates the full capture-to-output chain and

+after optional calibration.

+| ------ | ---- | ----------- |
+| POST | `/api/v1/setup/scaffold` | Create capture template + picture source + color-strip source + LED output target in one atomic call with rollback on partial failure. Does NOT auto-start the target. |
+
+**Wizard sequence (Phase 4):**
+
+1. Discover or create the device via `POST /api/v1/devices` (full URL
+   normalisation + provider validation runs there).
+2. Call `POST /api/v1/setup/scaffold` with the resulting `device_id`.
+3. Calibrate (Phase 1 endpoints).
+4. Start the output target via `POST /api/v1/output-targets/{id}/start`.
+
+**Request body:**
+
+```json
+{
+  "device_id": "device_abc123",
+  "display_index": 0,
+  "calibration": null
+}
+```
+
+`device_id` is **required** and must reference an existing device (created via
+`POST /api/v1/devices`).  `display_index` selects the monitor to capture
+(0 = primary; range 0–63).  `calibration` is an optional `CalibrationConfig`
+dict; when omitted, `create_default_calibration(led_count)` is used.
+
+**Response (201 Created):**
+
+```json
+{
+  "device_id": "device_abc123",
+  "capture_template_id": "tpl_11223344",
+  "picture_source_id": "ps_aabbccdd",
+  "color_strip_source_id": "css_11223344",
+  "output_target_id": "pt_aabbccdd",
+  "capture_template_reused": true
+}
+```
+
+`capture_template_reused` is `true` when an existing template matched the
+platform engine (no new template was created).
+
+**Rollback:** if any step fails, all entities created within the same call are
+deleted in reverse order so no orphans remain.  The pre-existing device and any
+reused template are never deleted.  Entity "created" events are emitted only
+after the full chain succeeds, so a rollback never produces ghost UI cards.

-## Custom Calibration
+## Automatic Calibration
+
+The easiest way to calibrate your strip is the **Auto-Calibrate** wizard, available directly
+from the calibration modal. No LED counting required — just answer three questions and tap four
+corners.
+
+### Prerequisites
+
+- A **Color Strip Source** (not a device-only target) associated with the strip.
+- A **WLED device** connected and reachable by LedGrab.
+
+### How to Start
+
+1. Open the **Calibration** modal for your strip source (pencil icon → Calibration tab).
+2. Click the **Auto-calibrate** button in the modal footer.
+3. Follow the five-step wizard.
+
+### Wizard Steps
+
+| Step | What you do |
+| ---- | ----------- |
+| 1. Device | Select the WLED device that drives the strip. |
+| 2. Start corner | LED #0 lights up on your device. Tap the corner where you see it. |
+| 3. Direction | Sweep a few LEDs light up in sequence. Tap the direction they move. |
+| 4. Mark corners | Use the step buttons to sweep to each remaining corner, then tap **Mark corner**. Repeat for all 4 corners. |
+| 5. Preview & Save | Review the detected layout (start position, direction, LED counts per edge). Click **Save** to apply. |
+
+### What Happens in the Background
+
+- A calibration session takes exclusive control of the device for the duration of the wizard;
+  any previously running effect is paused and automatically restored when the wizard exits
+  (whether by saving, cancelling, or closing the modal).
+- The solved `CalibrationConfig` is written directly to the Color Strip Source via the existing
+  PUT endpoint and takes effect immediately (no restart needed).
+
+### Tips
+
+- If LED #0 is hard to see, reduce ambient lighting briefly.
+- The wizard works in the browser — desktop and Android TV app both supported.
+- If you make a mistake in step 4, use **Step back** to re-mark the previous corner.

+"""Calibration session lifecycle and per-LED chase driver.
+
+Provides two things:
+1. ``set_calibration_pixel`` — direct per-index LED write for the chase
+   (added beside ``set_test_mode`` on ``ProcessorManager`` via the mixin, but
+   kept here to avoid growing device_test_mode.py further).
+2. ``CalibrationSession`` — single-active-session guard with idle timeout and
+   guaranteed stop/restore contract.
+
+Stop / restore contract (required by Phase 3 UI)
+-------------------------------------------------
+- ``start(device_id)``:
+    * If a target is currently processing on *device_id*, stop it and record
+      its ``target_id`` as ``_prior_target_id``.
+    * Send the device to black (chase start state).
+    * Record session as active with a fresh ``last_activity`` timestamp.
+    * Only one active session is allowed at a time; starting a new one on any
+      device while another is active calls ``stop()`` on the old one first.
+- ``position(index, window)``:
+    * Validates ``index < led_count``; raises ``ValueError`` on out-of-range.
+    * Sends a chase pixel (bright white centre ±window dim neighbours).
+    * Updates ``last_activity``.
+- ``stop()`` / ``cancel()``:
+    * Sends all-black to clear the device.
+    * If ``_prior_target_id`` was recorded, calls ``start_processing`` to
+      restart it.
+    * Clears the session state.
+    * NEVER leaves the device dark or stuck in chase.
+- Idle timeout (``IDLE_TIMEOUT_SECONDS``, default 60 s):
+    * A background asyncio task checks ``last_activity``; if the session has
+      been idle longer than the timeout, ``stop()`` is called automatically.
+    * The timeout task is cancelled when ``stop()`` is called explicitly.
+
+Notes
+-----
+- ``set_calibration_pixel`` reuses ``_get_idle_client`` /
+  ``_send_pixels_to_device`` from ``DeviceTestModeMixin``; no new connection
+  management is needed.
+- The session holds a reference to the ``ProcessorManager`` so it can call
+  ``stop_processing`` / ``start_processing``.
+- Thread-safety: all public methods are ``async``; the idle-timeout callback
+  schedules itself on the running event loop via ``asyncio.ensure_future``.

+/**
+ * Auto-Calibration flow — guided LED-chase corner-tap wizard.
+ *
+ * Exports `mountAutoCalibration` / `unmountAutoCalibration` so Phase 4's
+ * wizard can embed this as a step without modification.
+ *
+ * Flow:
+ *   1. Device selection (EntitySelect; skipped when deviceId supplied)
+ *   2. Start corner — light index 0; user taps which corner is lit → start_position
+ *   3. Direction — advance a few indices; user identifies direction → layout
+ *   4. Tap-to-mark-corners — dot sweeps; user taps NEXT at each physical corner
+ *      (first tap = corner at index 0, per Phase 1 solver contract)
+ *   5. Preview & Save — POST /calibration/solve → summary → PUT CSS hot-reload
+ *
+ * Session contract (Phase 1 handoff):
+ *   POST /api/v1/calibration/session        → start (stops running target)
+ *   POST /api/v1/calibration/session/position → advance chase pixel
+ *   POST /api/v1/calibration/session/stop   → ALWAYS call on exit / error
+ *   POST /api/v1/calibration/solve          → pure solver (no persist)
+ *   PUT  /api/v1/color-strip-sources/{id}   → persist + hot-reload
+ *
+ * CRITICAL: the first corner tap corresponds to LED index 0 so the solver's
+ * `corner_indices[0] == 0` matches `solve_calibration`'s assumption that the
+ * start corner is at strip index 0 (Phase 1 review finding).

+Coverage:
+  - scaffold happy path (device_id-based; 4 entities created, correct linking ids,
+    entity events fired ONLY after full success)
+  - scaffold reuses existing capture template
+  - scaffold partial-failure rollback (force a later step to fail → no orphans AND
+    no stray "created" events emitted for the rolled-back entities)
+  - scaffold 404 for unknown/missing device_id
+  - scaffold 422 for display_index out of range (> 63)
+  - scaffold 422 when device_id field is absent (Pydantic validation)
+  - onboarding GET default (onboarded=false, completed_at=null)
+  - onboarding PUT round-trip (timestamps auto-stamped)
+  - integration: scaffold → PUT calibration on the CSS → GET CSS round-trips with it
+
+Deep adversarial coverage is deferred to the Phase 4 test-writer (Big Bang strategy).

+Criteria derived from Phase 1 acceptance criteria (NOT from what the code does):

+  - An edge with 0 LEDs (two corners tapped adjacent) is valid.

+New adversarial cases not covered by the existing 19 happy-path tests:

+    either handle it gracefully (total=0) OR raise with a clear message.
+    Per criteria the total must be preserved (0 == 0) and round-trip must not crash.
+  - Descending / out-of-order corner_indices where wrap-around should apply.
+  - An edge that spans the whole strip (one edge wraps the full led_count minus
+    the contribution of the three zero-LED edges).
+  - led_count just above minimum (led_count=1) with a single LED claimed by
+    one edge.
+  - offset >= led_count: the solver stores offset verbatim; PixelMapper normalises
+    it via % total_leds.  The build_segments() round-trip must not crash.

+        # Descending indices that form valid partitions do sum to led_count.

+# Edge that wraps the whole strip

+# A single-edge case: [0, 100, 100, 100] would give left=100, top=0, right=0,
+# bottom=0 for bottom_left/clockwise.  But 100 % 100 = 0 so end_idx=0,
+# start_idx=0 → count=0 for left too.  Use index 100 directly (>led_count).
+# Alternatively: for led_count=100, corners [0, 0, 0, 0] with all-zero is
+# already tested.  The wrap-all case uses non-modulo indices.
+#
+# The real case: one valid single-edge scenario:
+#   bottom_left/clockwise, 100 LEDs, EDGE_ORDER = [left,top,right,bottom]
+#   corners [0, 100, 100, 100]:  left: 0→100%100=0 → 0-LED because end==start.
+#   No, there's no way to make one edge claim all 100 LEDs with index-based input
+#   other than having it wrap around.  Test: [50, 50, 50, 50] (all equal):
+#   already tested above.
+# The closest adversarial case: one edge with count == led_count via wrap-around.
+# For bottom_left/clockwise, [50, 50, 50, 50] makes top=0,right=0,bottom=0,left=0.
+# To make ONE edge == 100: we need start_idx=50, end_idx=50 for three edges
+# and start=50, end=50 wraps to 0 for that edge... that's the all-zeros case.
+# The only way one edge gets ALL leds is:
+#   e.g. left: corners[0]=50, corners[1]=50 → 50==50 → count=0 (NOT 100).
+#   There's a subtle algorithmic distinction: adjacent indices being equal → 0 LED
+#   vs wrap-around: if the algorithm used (start+count)%N as end, then one-edge
+#   spanning the whole strip would require start=end via wrap, giving count=N.
+#   But the current algorithm: end==start → count=0.  This is the CORRECT behavior
+#   per the Phase 1 spec ("Adjacent taps on the same index → 0-LED edge").
