fix: auto-add flag parsing, contact cache restore, and USB reconnect

- Fix operator precedence bug in _handleAutoAddConfig where `flags &
  flag != 0` was parsed as `flags & (flag != 0)`, always checking bit 0
  instead of the correct flag bit
- Populate _contacts from cache in loadContactCache() so contacts
  persist across app restarts
- Toggle DTR low→high on USB connect to force device to see a fresh
  connection
- Add 10ms inter-frame delay for USB sends to prevent missed responses
- Deassert DTR before closing USB port on disconnect/dispose
