feat(firmware): add over-the-air firmware and filesystem updates - #55

Resample the WAV clips from 44.1 kHz to 22.05 kHz to halve their LittleFS footprint (1.39 MB to 0.70 MB), freeing flash for a second firmware slot. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
Split the app partition into two 1.5 MB OTA slots and run an ArduinoOTA listener while connected to home Wi-Fi. `pio run -t ota` and `pio run -t otafs` upload firmware and LittleFS using TINY_ENGINEER_URL and TINY_ENGINEER_TOKEN. A set access_token doubles as the OTA password. New firmware stays pending until it connects to Wi-Fi and starts the OTA listener; otherwise the bootloader rolls back to the previous slot on the next reset. The partition table change needs one USB flash. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

Security Architecture ReviewSecurity architecture risk: 🟠 High · up to The optional Wi-Fi update build allows device-software replacement without requiring a credential when the access token is unset.

# Conflicts: # partitions.csv
The default build keeps the single app slot, coredump partition, 1.81 MB LittleFS and 44100 Hz audio. `pio run -e ota` builds with TE_OTA, two 1.5 MB OTA slots in partitions_ota.csv, a 960 KB LittleFS, and registers the ota/otafs targets. Source WAVs stay 44100 Hz. With custom_audio_rate = 22050 the asset pack halves each clip through a 31-tap halfband FIR so the stock set and the halloween overlay fit the smaller filesystem. The pack size check reads the environment's board_build.partitions. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

SAMPLE_RATE is 22050 for both the default and the ota environment, so both play the same LittleFS image. Source WAVs in assets/ and mods/ stay 44100 Hz mono 16-bit; the asset pack always halves them, and now also rejects a stock WAV in any other format.

The post-upload filesystem step ran buildfs and uploadfs without -e, so `pio run -e ota -t upload` wrote the default environment's image at its spiffs offset, which lies inside the ota app1 slot.

wav_stream skipped straight to the data chunk and ignored fmt, so a clip at another sample rate played at the wrong speed. The header is now checked before playback: PCM, mono, 16-bit, SAMPLE_RATE, with fmt ahead of data. Odd-sized chunks are skipped with their RIFF pad byte. A rejected clip is closed and logged without writing to I2S.

🩺 Stability & Availability | 🟡 Minor | ⚡ Quick winStart OTA when provisioning connects to Wi-Fi.
If the device boots without working saved Wi-Fi credentials,
runWifiSetup()starts the provisioning AP andsetup()skipsstartOta(). When the settings request later connects the device to Wi-Fi, no code starts OTA.pollOta()returns whileg_otais null, so OTA uploads remain unavailable for that session. A pending firmware image also stays unconfirmed and can roll back on reset. Start OTA when the provisioning flow establishes the connection.Suggested fix

the skip would exceed the file or overflow the valid range. In the WAV chunk

otabuild environment for Wi-Fi updates of firmware and LittleFS. The default build keeps upstream's flash layout: one app slot, coredump, 1.81 MB LittleFS.The two variables are the ones the agent integrations already read.
partitions_ota.csvhas two 1.5 MB app slots and 960 KB of LittleFS, with no coredump partition. The firmware is 1.40 MB (89.0% of a slot).partitions.csvis untouched.SAMPLE_RATE = 22050), so they share one LittleFS image. Source WAVs inassets/andmods/stay 44.1 kHz mono 16-bit. The asset pack halves every clip, stock andcustom_audio_modoverlay alike, with a 31-tap halfband FIR in pure Python (flat to 9 kHz, -23 dB at 13 kHz). Stock assets pack to 0.70 MB and the halloween overlay to 0.86 MB. Both fit the OTA LittleFS limit (960 KB minus 64 KB headroom)..cuetimings are in ms, so they still match.src/network/ota.cpponly compiles withTE_OTA.
