Add Settings > Keyboard "Ext. KB" row (boards with a CardKB-capable I2C
bus only): switching it to Compact hides the letter grid and special-row
icons in favour of a one-line status (script/page, caps) plus a Fn-shortcut
reminder, since an external-keyboard typist never looks at the on-screen
grid. Accent/placeholder popups still render as before. Off by default.

Select nodes had this flag enabled, testing by the community
and hardware specs indicate this can be enabled global for all
node types using this chipset.
Any nodes down the line that may be quirky can be individually
disabled with `-U USE_CC310_HW_CRYPTO`.
CardKB is level-triggered (repeats the held byte every poll) and its Enter
key collided with the on-screen keyboard grid's own commit action, causing
duplicate characters and accidental message sends. Debounce polling and use
the CardKB v1.1 Fn modifier (confirmed working on real hardware) instead of
tracking navigation state: plain Enter now behaves like the physical centre
button, Fn+Enter submits, Fn+Tab opens the Hold-Enter equivalent, and
Fn+<letter> opens that letter's accent popup directly.

Auto-detected at boot on Wire1/Grove (addr 0x5F) -- no setting to flip, and a
no-op on boards without that bus or with nothing attached. This UI's key
codes (KEY_LEFT/UP/DOWN/RIGHT/ENTER/CANCEL) already match CardKB's own byte
protocol, so most input needs zero translation and flows through the same
key queue as physical buttons.
Two bytes get remapped in UITask::pollCardKB():
- Enter, only when the on-screen keyboard's plain grid state is active (no
placeholder/accent popup, not in cursor-mode), becomes a new KEY_KB_ENTER
sentinel meaning "submit the field" -- reusing plain KEY_ENTER there would
insert a stray character, since a CardKB typist's row/col never reflect an
intentional grid selection. Everywhere else Enter is untouched, so
selecting a placeholder or committing an accent still works normally.
- Tab (otherwise unused) becomes KEY_CONTEXT_MENU, standing in for the
"Hold-Enter" long-press gesture CardKB has no way to produce -- without it,
~30 context menus across the UI (message reply/navigate, Bot/Admin/
Repeater, ...) would be unreachable from the keyboard alone.
KeyboardWidget gains a direct-typing path: printable ASCII inserts straight
at the cursor bypassing the grid, Backspace deletes, KEY_KB_ENTER submits.
Build-verified: WioTrackerL1_companion_solo_dual and
WioTrackerL1Eink_companion_solo_dual both compile and link clean; also
smoke-tested Heltec_mesh_solar_companion_radio_ble (no ENV_PIN_SDA/SCL) to
confirm zero regression on boards without the feature.

The bot outgrew "auto-reply" once it gained Actions (!buzz/!gps/!advert/
!gpio1-4) that control device hardware remotely, not just answer messages.
Renames the Tools screen entry and all doc cross-references; already-shipped
release notes (v1.23) are left as-is to match what actually shipped under
that name.

The room server never supported RX boosted gain, while the repeater
does. Three consequences on SX1262/SX1268 boards:
- boosted gain was never applied to the radio at boot, so a room server
ran in power-saving RX mode while an identical repeater ran boosted -
a real receive-sensitivity difference with nothing pointing at it
- _prefs.rx_boosted_gain was never initialised (the prefs are memset to
0 before defaults are set), so it defaulted to off
- 'set radio.rxgain on' replied "Error: unsupported" but CommonCLI had
already written the value to prefs and saved them, so a stale setting
survived reboot and was never applied
Mirror the repeater's implementation: initialise the pref default under
the same USE_SX1262/USE_SX1268 and SX126X_RX_BOOSTED_GAIN guards, apply
it during radio init, and override setRxBoostedGain() so the CLI reports
success and takes effect.
Built Heltec_v3_room_server (SX1262) and LilyGo_T3S3_sx1276_room_server
(guards compile out cleanly).
- Auto-Reply Bot gains Actions (!buzz/!gps/!advert) behind a new per-target
toggle nested under Commands (bot_actions_dm/ch/room); off by default.
- Bot Trigger fields accept comma-separated multiple phrases, matching any
one fires the reply.
- New user-assignable GPIO feature (Wio Tracker L1): !gpio1..!gpio4 bot
commands plus a Tools > GPIO screen. Each pin cycles Off/Input/Output;
GPIO1/GPIO2 (P0.02/P0.29, the nRF52840's AIN0/AIN5) also offer a read-only
Analog mode via direct SAADC access. GPIO3/GPIO4 (P0.09/P0.10) are the
chip's NFC1/NFC2 pins, repurposed as plain GPIO via a one-time UICR
NFCPINS bit-clear in initVariant() (adapted from Adafruit's own
nfc_to_gpio example) -- confirmed working on real hardware.
- Fix: DM/room reply-prefix ("@[nick] ") stripping happened at the wrong
layer, hiding the "To:" header on DM replies and leaking the raw prefix
into room messages' list view; a related mismatch had the history
scrollbar's sizing pass wrap room messages with the sender name still
attached, disagreeing with the actual rendered text.
Build-verified: WioTrackerL1_companion_solo_dual and
WioTrackerL1Eink_companion_solo_dual both compile and link clean
(sizeof(NodePrefs) confirmed 2720 via real build, not guessed).

Compile fails due to user_btn not declared in board target.
Fixes:
- Add MomentaryButton declaration for user_btn in variants/xiao_nrf52/target.cpp
- Add momentary button helper include in variants/xiao_nrf52/target.h
- Add extern linkage for MomentaryButton -> user_btn in variants/xiao_nrf52/target.h
