feat(repeater): suppress Adaptive Power Control while relaying

Browse Source 
A repeater wants full, consistent TX power for relay reach, and APC's feedback
(own ACKs / own flood echoes) never fires on forwarded traffic — so leaving APC
on would relay at whatever reduced power it last trimmed to, or sit inert on a
dedicated repeater network. Force it off whenever client_repeat is on, mirroring
the power-save lock:

- apcActive() = tx_apc && !client_repeat gates every APC control site
  (sample/failure/track).
- applyApc() pins power to the tx_power_dbm ceiling; called at boot, on the
  on-device repeater toggle, and on the app's CMD_SET_RADIO_PARAMS.
- Settings "Auto pwr" shows "--" and blocks the toggle while repeating; the
  user's pref is preserved and restored when the repeater is switched off.

Also refreshes the FEATURES repeater entry (Hold-Enter reset, Errors row, schema
0x10, the radio-setting locks and status indicator).
