Fixes false validation failures when "interface online" message scrolls
out of view due to verbose BLE startup logging (100+ lines in first minute).
Changes:
- Clear logfile before starting rnsd (new step 7/8)
- Separate stop and start into distinct steps for cleaner restart
- Validate from first 200 lines (head) instead of last 100 (tail)
- Rename RECENT_LOGS to STARTUP_LOGS for clarity
This ensures "interface online" is always in the validation window
regardless of time delay between deployment and validation jobs.

The validation script checks ~/.reticulum/logfile for BLE interface
status, but this file is only created when rnsd is started with the
-s (service/syslog) flag.
Without -s flag:
- rnsd runs but doesn't write to ~/.reticulum/logfile
- Validation script fails: "Log file not found"
- Deployment appears successful but validation always fails
With -s flag:
- rnsd writes logs to ~/.reticulum/logfile
- Validation can check for "interface online" message
- Full deployment + validation cycle works
Note: Only affects manual rnsd startup (non-systemd path). Systemd
installations should have -s configured in the service file.

Completely refactored the deployment workflow to create separate
GitHub Actions nodes for each Pi, with independent deploy and
validation steps. This provides much better visibility and control.
New Architecture:
1. **setup** job: Parses PI_HOSTS into JSON matrix
2. **deploy** job: Matrix execution (one instance per Pi)
3. **validate** job: Matrix execution (one instance per Pi)
4. **summary** job: Aggregate results
GitHub Actions Graph View (2 Pis):
```
setup ━┳━> deploy-pi-0 ━> validate-pi-0
┗━> deploy-pi-1 ━> validate-pi-1
```
Features:
- **Parallel execution**: All Pis deploy simultaneously
- **Independent nodes**: Each Pi has its own deploy + validate node
- **fail-fast: false**: One Pi failure doesn't block others
- **Per-Pi logs**: Clean, isolated logs for each device
- **Comprehensive validation**:
* Wait 5s for startup
* Check rnsd process
* Verify BLE interface online (retry 3x with 3s delay)
* Check Bluetooth adapter powered
* Display adapter MAC address
- **Better error reporting**: Shows which specific Pi failed
- **Granular status**: See each Pi's status independently
Validation Checks:
✓ rnsd process running
✓ Log file exists
✓ No critical errors in logs
✓ "interface online" message found
✓ Bluetooth adapter powered
✓ Retry logic for startup delays
Benefits:
- Easier to identify which Pi has issues
- Can re-run individual Pi jobs
- Faster deployment (parallel vs sequential)
- Clearer progression in GitHub UI
- Each Pi's logs are isolated and clean
Example UI with failure:
```
setup ✓
├─ deploy-pi-0 ✓
│ └─ validate-pi-0 ✗ (BLE failed to start)
└─ deploy-pi-1 ✓
└─ validate-pi-1 ✓ (BLE online)
```

The deploy workflow was failing to start rnsd because the SSH session's
PATH doesn't include ~/.local/bin where rnsd is installed.
Issue:
- rnsd installed at ~/.local/bin/rnsd (pip install --user)
- Non-interactive SSH session doesn't have ~/.local/bin in PATH
- Command "nohup rnsd" failed: "command not found"
- Deployment reported "Failed to start rnsd"
Fix:
- Define RNSD_BIN="$HOME/.local/bin/rnsd"
- Use full path when starting rnsd via nohup
- Works regardless of SSH session PATH configuration
Now deployment will successfully restart rnsd after copying updated files.

The deploy workflow was failing when manually triggered via workflow_dispatch
because it only checked for github.event.workflow_run.head_branch, which is
empty for manual triggers.
Issue:
- Manual trigger: gh workflow run deploy.yml --ref refactor/abstraction-layer
- BRANCH_NAME was empty ("")
- git checkout "" failed: "empty string is not a valid pathspec"
- Deployment failed on all Pis
Fix:
- Use fallback operator: github.event.workflow_run.head_branch || github.ref_name
- workflow_run trigger: uses head_branch (branch that triggered the tests)
- workflow_dispatch trigger: uses ref_name (branch being run on)
Now works for both:
- Automatic deployment after tests complete
- Manual deployment via workflow_dispatch or gh CLI

Added workflow_dispatch trigger to allow manual deployment without
waiting for test workflow completion. This is useful for:
- Testing the deployment workflow
- Deploying when automatic trigger doesn't fire
- Re-deploying without pushing new code
Usage:
- Go to Actions → Deploy to Raspberry Pi → Run workflow
- Or via CLI: gh workflow run deploy.yml
Updated the if condition to run on either:
- Automatic trigger when tests complete successfully
- Manual trigger via workflow_dispatch

The branches filter in workflow_run triggers can cause workflow validation
errors: "The workflow must contain at least one job with no dependencies."
According to GitHub Actions documentation, the branches/branches-ignore
filters are not well-supported in workflow_run triggers and can cause
validation issues.
Removed the branches filter - the workflow will now trigger when the
"Tests" workflow completes on any branch, which is the intended behavior.
Fixes workflow validation error on Line 11, Col 3.

Changed from invalid cross-workflow job dependency (needs) to workflow_run
trigger. Deploy now runs after "Tests" workflow completes successfully.
Changes:
- Trigger on workflow_run instead of push
- Only run if test workflow conclusion is success
- Use workflow_run event refs for branch/commit/actor

Replaced heredoc syntax with a bash variable to avoid YAML parsing issues.
The deployment script is now stored in DEPLOY_SCRIPT variable and piped
to ssh via echo.

Adds continuous deployment workflow that automatically deploys code changes
to Raspberry Pi devices after tests pass.
Features:
- Runs on self-hosted runner after unit/integration tests complete
- Supports containerized runners (k3s/Docker) via SSH key secrets
- Deploys to multiple Pis in sequence with detailed logging
- Automatically restarts rnsd service after code update
- Fails entire job if any Pi deployment fails
Required secrets: PI_HOSTS, PI_REPO_PATH, PI_USER, PI_SSH_KEY
