Pages choose their own refresh effect (or the Hardware setting), used when
the page appears and for its own changes. Schedule blocks that switch
instantly and rules still switch instantly. The ESP32 sends page effects
to the Nano with a new no-save flag (E ...,2), so page switches don't wear
the Nano's EEPROM. Page format 7 (version 6 pages are converted).

Home Assistant: remove the Clock switch (its entity is deleted on connect),
add an IP sensor and Mode / Off image dropdowns whose options follow the
saved bitmaps. Remove the built-in "Nintendo border" bitmap.
Off image: a bitmap (or blank) left on the dots when the display switches off.
Nano: pause after each flip pulse and repeat pulses for changed dots, both
stored in EEPROM (G/N commands). Refresh effects (E command): instant,
sparkle, wipe, rain, from the middle out, diagonal, spiral, flip all then
reveal, push and random, optionally only for small changes. Effects run in
steps from loop() so serial input keeps flowing.
Web UI: flip settings, refresh effect and test patterns under Settings; the
System tab shows why the ESP32 last restarted. Settings records from
versions 1 and 2 are migrated. Firmware 2.3.0.
