feat: polish status bar and home screen layout

- Move "A" (auto-advert) indicator left of BT "B" in status bar
- Ellipsize node name to fit available width instead of overflowing
- Shrink A and B background rectangles by 1px right, 2px bottom
- Change A blink to 2s on / 2s off at 1000ms refresh rate
- Auto-advert sends GPS position directly via createSelfAdvert/sendZeroHop
- Align Settings and Tools home page titles to y=22, same as Messages
