- New flash layout (partitions.csv): factory = recovery app, ota_0/ota_1 =
clock firmware; esp32_usb uploads to ota_0 so it never overwrites it
- src/recovery: WiFi + OTA + web page only. Opens the password protected
'FlipDot-Setup' AP with a captive portal when WiFi fails, lets you pick
another WiFi (stored in NVS, used by both apps), start the clock or stay
- Recovery is started when the clock firmware can't connect to WiFi,
crashes 3 times, after 3 quick power cycles, from a new Home Assistant
button, or by the bootloader when no clock firmware works
- Shared NVS store and boot switching in src/esp32/system
- Clock firmware keeps working on the old flash layout (falls back to
OTA-only safe mode)
- README: recovery app, one-time USB installation; tests: 65 total
