Why: When BLE pairing failed during connect(), the exception was caught
as a warning and connect() continued normally. This left the transport
in a half-usable state — the BLE link was up but the pairing handshake
never completed, so encrypted characteristics could silently fail.
Now the pairing exception disconnects the client and re-raises, giving
the caller a clean failure. Updated the pre-existing
test_ble_connection_with_pin_failed_pairing test to assert the re-raise
behavior instead of the old swallow-and-continue behavior.

Why: handle_disconnect resets self.client to self._user_provided_client.
That client's disconnected_callback was not re-registered, so subsequent
BLE disconnects after a successful reconnect cycle were missed —
ConnectionManager never learned the link dropped again. Now re-registers
via set_disconnected_callback with a hasattr guard and try/except for
bleak version compatibility. The next connect() call would also re-create
the client with the callback, but this closes the gap between disconnect
and reconnect.

Why: When handle_rx detects an oversize frame header (>300 bytes), it
resets state (header, inframe, frame_expected_size) and re-calls itself
on any remaining data. But when data is empty after the header, the
method fell through to the frame-assembly code with inframe=b"",
eventually dispatching an empty frame to reader.handle_rx. Currently
absorbed by F06's umbrella try/except, but a guaranteed crash if that
guard moves. Adding a bare return after the reset block prevents the
fallthrough in both TCP and serial transports.

Why: After create_serial_connection, connect() awaited
_connected_event.wait() with no timeout. If the serial device opened
but connection_made was never called (driver bug, USB adapter glitch),
connect() hung indefinitely. Now wrapped in asyncio.wait_for with a
configurable timeout (default 10s). asyncio.TimeoutError propagates
to the caller for clean failure handling.

Why: TCP was the only transport that fired _disconnect_callback on a dead
transport or send failure. Serial and BLE returned silently, leaving
ConnectionManager unaware the link was down. Additionally, transport.write()
(TCP/serial) and write_gatt_char (BLE) had no try/except — any write-time
exception escaped the send() coroutine unhandled. This commit makes all three
transports symmetric: (a) fire _disconnect_callback when transport is None/dead,
(b) wrap the write call in try/except and fire _disconnect_callback on failure.

- Update mock dispatcher to use subscribe-before-send pattern matching
the rewritten CommandHandler.send() method
- Use 32-byte pubkeys in tests for commands that now require
prefix_length=32 (login, logout, statusreq, reset_path, share/export/remove contact)
- Fix send_trace test path format to match flags=1 (2-byte path hashes)
- Update LPP current test to expect signed wrap for values > 32.767
- Fix BinaryReqType import (moved from meshcore.parsing to meshcore.packets)
- Fix register_binary_request call signature (added pubkey_prefix param)
- Update timeout test to expect 'no_event_received' instead of 'timeout'
Add warnings to send_login, send_statusreq, send_telemetry_req, and
send_path_discovery pointing users to their _sync counterparts. The
fire-and-forget versions bypass the mesh request lock and can cause
silent response drops due to firmware clearPendingReqs() behavior.
The companion firmware can only track one outstanding mesh request at a
time — clearPendingReqs() zeros all pending response flags before each
outgoing mesh request. Overlapping mesh commands cause silent response
drops.
Adds _mesh_request_lock to CommandHandlerBase and wraps all _sync
methods with it. Also adds send_login_sync and send_path_discovery_sync
for complete round-trip serialization of those commands.
Local commands (get_bat, get_channel, set_time, send_msg, etc.) are
unaffected — they don't trigger clearPendingReqs() on the firmware.
